"Descend to the depths of primal horror with this chilling collection of original

stories drawn from H. P. Lovecraft's shocking, terrifying, and eerily prescient Cthulhu

Mythos.

In twenty-one dark visions, a host of outstanding contemporary writers tap

into our innermost fears, with tales set in a misbegotten new world that could have

been spawned only by the master of the macabre himself, H. P. Lovecraft. Inside you'll

find-

""Details""by China Mieville- A curious boy discovers that within the splinters of cracked wood or the tangle of tree branches, the devil is in the details.

""Visitation""by James Robert Smith- When Edgar Allan Poe arrives, a callow man finally gets what he always wanted-and what he may eternally despise.

""Meet Me on the Other Side"" by Yvonne Navarro- A couple in love with terror travels beyond their wildest dreams-and into their nightmares.

""A Fatal Exception Has Occured At . . ."" by Alan Dean Foster- Internet terrorism extends far beyond transmittingthreatsof evil.

Reviews for The Children of Cthulhu: Stories

This volume takes Lovecraft's ideas and truly pushes them in directions the author never could have conceived. -- Cinescape UNABASHEDLY HORRIFIC . . . A PERFECT TRIBUTE TO H. P. LOVECRAFT . . . [The stories] range from Poppy Z. Brite's lucid and magnificent 'Are You Loathsome Tonight?' to the elaborate, quintessentially Lovecraftian construction of 'A Victorian Pot Dresser' by L. H. Maynard and M.P.N. Sims. -- Booklist H. P. Lovecraft's dark mythology continues to fascinate and inspire writers. A stellar result of this inspiration is collected in The Children of Cthulhu . --The Denver Post
