Lair of the Dreamer: A Cthulhu Mythos Omnibus

by Franklyn Searight

Franklyn Searight is the son of Richard F. Searight, Weird Tales author and correspondent of H. P. Lovecraft. Although the elder Searight invented the evocative Eltdown Shards, occasionally employed by Lovecraft himself, he made no great effort to carry on the Cthulhu Mythos tradition. Happily, the younger Searight does! Enthusiasts have been delighted with Frankyn Searight's Innsmouth stories since the mid-seventies, but never before have all of these tales been drawn together. Also included in this long overdue single-author collection is his unpublished Mythos novel, Lair of the Dreamer, along with his posthumous collaboration with his father, "The Mists of Death."

[Alexander Ballantyne · Rating 1 out of 5]

A rare instance of a book I had to abandon. After reading four of the included stories I could no longer take the Mary Sue character 'Allan' that kept turning up.
