Publisher Description

From the depths of R'lyeh come twenty-one brand-new, utterly terrifying, and thoroughly entertaining tales of Lovecraftian horror and the macabre

Taking their inspiration from works by Lovecraft himself, prominent writers such as Caitlin R. Kiernan, Brian Stableford, Ramsey Campbell, Michael Shea, Darrell Schweitzer, Donald R. Burleson, and David J. Schow delve deep into the psyche, expanding on concepts H.P. Lovecraft created and taking them in new directions. 

The result is stories that are wholly original, some even featuring Lovecraft himself as a character. Black Wings editor S.T. Joshi is the recognized authority on all things Lovecraftian, and is famous for his restorations of Lovecraft's original works. He has assembled a star-studded line-up in a book that is essential for every horror library.

“Delving into Lovecraftian literature is a risky endeavor. As a lifelong https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/9494.H_P__Lovecraft fan, I love the fact that he is undeniably one of the most important and influential figures in horror. However, the writing that is done within his mythos, especially that which deals with some of his most enduring characters and stories (i.e. Cthulhu, Richard Upton Pickman, Nyarlathotep, etc.), ranges from award-winning stories to deplorable fan fiction. Given such brutal inconsistencies, you can understand my apprehension when I cracked open <strong>Black Wings of Cthulhu: Twenty-One Tales of Lovecraftian Horror</strong>. Coming in at just over 500 pages, it was https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/406026.S_T__Joshi 's name on the cover that made me take the plunge. By the time the book was over, I was craving 500 more pages. You can read Gabino's full review at Horror DNA by https://www.horrordna.com/books/black-wings-of-cthulhu-book-review .”
