Weird Shadows Over Innsmouth полностью

PRAISE FOR WEIRD SHADOWS OVER INNSMOUTH

“Not just H. P. Lovecraft fans will revel in this fine follow-up to Jones’ Shadows Over Innsmouth, a World Fantasy finalist. As in its predecessor, the stories in this anthology draw inspiration from Lovecraft’s classic novelette of alien miscegenation, ‘The Shadow Over Innsmouth,’ but avoid Cthulhu Mythos clichés.”

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY

“Jones has brought together some of the industry’s top-notch authors... This collection is strongly recommended for Mythos fans. Due to the overall quality of the writing, though, it is strongly recommended for everyone else, too.”

HELLNOTES

“Fascinating and recommended.”

ALL HALLOWS

PRAISE FOR SHADOWS OVER INNSMOUTH

“If you love Lovecraft then this anthology is a must-have. Story after story presents you with situations and characters that Lovecraft himself could have created. I’m hard-pressed to think of another effort that stays so true to the original.”

SCIENCE FICTION CHRONICLE

“Shadows Over Innsmouth is a very strong anthology, buttressed by some outstanding art by Dave Carson, Martin McKenna and Jim Pitts.”

THE SCREAM FACTORY

“Fans of Lovecraft’s Mythos will enjoy the stories.”

SF SITE

“Shadows Over Innsmouth is good, slimy fun.”

SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE

“A fascinating idea for a horror compilation.”

LANCASHIRE EVENING PRESS
