The Shadow of the Unknown Lovecraftian Anthology

The Shadow of the Unknown is the latest anthology to emerge from a real grassroots level in the Lovecraftian arena. Though some of the names aren't yet quite as well known as more established writers, one never knows when they are looking at the next generation of successors to the two or three Lovecraftian waves who have issued out of the literary leaves since Lovecraft exited this earthly plane. This latest book collects nearly thirty tales inspired by the modern weird and its finest attendants.

Going into untested waters isn't always easy, particularly when Lovecraftian fiction is one sub-genre with a history marred by crude pastiches. Still, the endorsement of important rising authors like Jeffrey Thomas indicates that The Shadow of the Unknown is one more effort that's helping re-polish Lovecraft's legacy up to a glowing aura. Consider picking up this anthology for a look at genuine home grown horror with an HPL inspired bent.
