This Anthology of Cthulhu Mythos brings together 25 stories from two of the most influential authors in the horror genre, H. P. Lovecraft and Robert E. Howard. This anthology is a must-read for fans of horror and speculative fiction, offering a deep dive into the nightmarish worlds that have influenced generations of readers and writers. The combination of Lovecraft's cosmic horror and Howard's vivid imagination creates a compelling and terrifying journey into the unknown.

At the heart of these stories, as with all the best of Lovecraft’s work, is the belief that the Earth was once inhabited by powerful and evil gods, just waiting for the chance to recolonise their planet. Cthulhu is one such god, lurking deep beneath the sea until called into being by cult followers who – like all humans – know not what they do.

H. P. Lovecraft, born August 20, 1890, began composing rudimentary horror tales by the age of 8. He’s best remembered for cooking up his very own genre, Cosmic Horror, featuring monsters so powerful and terrifying that just seeing them will likely drive you insane. Lovecraft in early adulthood was established in a reclusive 'nightbird' lifestyle without occupation or pursuit of romantic adventures. He was 31 at the time of his first publication in a professional magazine. By age 34, he was a regular contributor to newly founded Weird Tales magazine.

This is volume two of a two-volume omnibus set comprising the complete fictional works of Howard Phillips Lovcecraft. Every story written for publication under his own name is included in this set, from 1927 through 1935. (Poems, ghostwritten material, and stories written in collaboration with other writers are not included.)

A student of Native American lore investigates Yig - the shadowy snake god of an extinct tribe of the Great Plains.

Howard Phillips Lovecraft est sans nul doute l'auteur fantastique le plus influent du XXe siècle. Son imaginaire unique et terrifiant n'a cessé d'inspirer des générations d'écrivains, de cinéastes, d'artistes ou de créateurs d'univers de jeux, de Neil Gaiman à Michel Houellebecq en passant par Metallica. Le mythe de Cthulhu est au cœur de cette œuvre : un panthéon de dieux et d'êtres monstrueux venus du cosmos et de la nuit des temps ressurgissent pour reprendre possession de notre monde.

"Ce bas-relief était un rectangle grossier de moins d'un pouce d'épaisseur et d'environ cinq pouces sur six, manifestement récent. Les dessins, pourtant, n'avaient rien de récent, ni dans leur harmonie, ni dans ce qu'ils suggéraient. En effet, si les fantaisies du cubisme et du futurisme ont été nombreuses et désordonnées, elles n'ont pas souvent répété la régularité secrète qui se dissimule dans le graphisme préhistorique. Or, pour l'essentiel, ces dessins paraissaient bien être les symboles d'une écriture."
