The Horror in the Museum and Other Revisions
I’ve long been curious about Lovecraft’s “revisions.”

[Kasia]

I've been on quite the reading kick the last 2 weeks so trying to keep the momentum going as I'm still really enjoying it, amongst few other titles I finished 5 J.A. Konrath books ( 3 full novels, 1 novella and 1 short story) and I can keep going but then decided to finish another series I started quite a bit ago because I wanted to read Riordan's next Apollo series and ppl in reviews said its best to finish this 1st :P

I'll be interested to hear what you think of it.

[inciminci]

Hey Randy, I feel a little sorry to admit that I'm a little underwhelmed. I'm a great fan of Langan's, the Fisherman as well as his short story collections are fantastic. In House of Windows, I think he takes the "slow burning" a little too far. You know how he uses that in most of his books/stories, he lets you wait and wait for about 100 pages and then he just grabs you by the collar and shakes you around? Well here that peak never came - I'm at about two thirds into the book now. So yeah, a bit of a slog, is my opinion.

[Randy]

I read it before reading The Fisherman, but having read a few of his short stories. "Slow burn" is pretty accurate, but I liked it quite a bit, and was particularly taken with how he dealt with the movements of unseen powers beneath the surface of our life.

Oh yeah, you're absolutely right, there are some extremely eerie scenes with those powers, aren't there? He is a tremendous author, it's just that the pacing in this book doesn't really click with me.

[Christopher]

Marie Corelli’s 1886 thriller Vendetta!, which begins with these words: “I, who write this, am a dead man. Dead legally—dead by absolute proofs—dead and buried!” Who says 19th-century novels are slow-moving?

[Erin]

The Chestnut Man

[inciminci]

Piranesi and
Negative Space

[Randy]

The Man from the Diogenes Club and The New Girlfriend: And Other Stories.

[Mike]
