New Cthulhu 2: More Recent Weird

Many of the best weird fiction writers & creators in other media have been influenced by the genre & the mythos H.P. Lovecraft created eight decades ago. His themes of cosmic indifference, minds invaded by the alien & the horrors of history—written with a pervasive atmosphere of dread—are more relevant than ever as we explore the mysteries of a cosmos in which our planet is infinitesimal & climatic change is overwhelming it. A few years ago, New Cthulhu presented some of the best of this new Lovecraftian fiction from the first decade of the 21st century. Now, New Cthulhu 2 brings more eldritch tales & even fresher fiction.Introduction 2.0 / Paula GuranThe Same Deep Waters As You / Brian Hodge Mysterium Tremendum / Laird Barron The Transition of Elizabeth Haskings / Caitlín R.
