Lovecraft In December #6: Life After Cthulhu


And now for something that's just okay!

For the 6th day in Lovecraft in December, I bring to you another anthology book that has a couple good stories, a few okay stories, and some very bad and stupid stories that I did not like at all, thank you very much.

The tales in this paperbacked tome are all about people's lives after the stars become right and R'lyeh and Cthulhu rise to end the world. Some immediately after the rise and some years or even decades after.

It's frustrating because I LOVE that concept. We don't see it often, only ever the human's attempts at fighting the mythos and cultist's efforts to help Cthulhu rise, but never the aftermath.

But some of these stories are just so...not good. I won't go into details for anybody who wants to seek this out themselves but...yeah. Buyer beware.
