Story
The Cthulhu Mythos is one of the 20th century's most singularly recognizable literary creations. Initially created by H. P. Lovecraft and a group of his amorphous contemporaries (the so-called "Lovecraft Circle"), The Cthulhu Mythos story cycle has taken on a convoluted, cyclopean life of its own. Some of the most prodigious writers of the 20th century, and some of the most astounding writers of the 21st century have planted their seeds in this fertile soil. The Book of Cthulhu harvests the weirdest and most corpulent crop of these modern mythos tales.

Story
Neil Gaiman has long been inspired by ancient mythology in creating the fantastical realms of his fiction. Now he turns his attention back to the source, presenting a bravura rendition of the great northern tales. In Norse Mythology, Gaiman fashions primeval stories into a novelistic arc that begins with the genesis of the legendary nine worlds; delves into the exploits of the deities, dwarves, and giants; and culminates in Ragnarok, the twilight of the gods and the rebirth of a new time and people.

Story
Until the mass hysteria of the seventeenth century, accusations of witchcraft in England were rare. However, four royal women, related in family and in court ties - Joan of Navarre, Eleanor Cobham, Jacquetta of Luxembourg, and Elizabeth Woodville - were accused of practicing witchcraft in order to kill or influence the king. In Royal Witches, Gemma Hollman explores the lives and the cases of these so-called witches, placing them in the historical context of 15th-century England, a setting rife with political upheaval and war.

Bot narration ruined it, you have the money pay a real human narrator or don’t make an audiobook at all.
I found most of it very bland never game me any feelings, or creeped me out or unsettled outside of being mildly interested. I liked the Frankenstein one though

Awesomely grotesque!
I absolutely loved this collection of short stories. It had a number of short, easily digestible tales as well as some movie-length epics that will leave you shuddering! Fantastic stories, the vast majority of which are absolutely worth listening to again.
My only complaint is with the performance, which is really great overall, I just found myself getting terribly annoyed with the ‘female’ voice the reader puts on. We’re women, not weirdly breathy Barbies, and yet everyone female from the little girls of the story to accomplished scientists to powerful sea sorceresses are all given a mildly “bimbo” -ish voice and cadence, like everything is just really dreamy.
Apart from that the different MALE character voices are fantastic. Wish the women were a fraction as good and varied.
But yeah, get this book! I am starting it over right now!
