The Eerie Adventures of the Lycanthrope Robinson Crusoe

By: Peter Clines

Narrated by: Tim Gerard Reynolds

This version of the classic tale, assembled by two legends of English literature and abridged by Peter Clines, is the terrifying supernatural true story of Robinson Crusoe as it has never been told before.

Robinson Crusoe is one of the most enduring adventures of the past four centuries and one of the most well-known works in the English language. Or is it?

Recently discovered amidst the papers of the 20th-century writer and historian H. P. Lovecraft is what claims to be the true story of Robinson Crusoe. Taken from the castaway's own journals and memoirs, and fact-checked by Lovecraft himself, it is free from many of Defoe's edits and alterations. From Lovecraft's work a much smoother, simpler tale emerges - but also a far more disturbing one.

Here Crusoe is revealed as a man bearing the terrible curse of the werewolf and the guilt that comes with it - a man with no real incentive to leave his island prison. The cannibals who terrorized Crusoe are revealed to be less human than ever before hinted at - worshippers of a malevolent octopus-headed god. And the island itself is a place of ancient, evil mysteries that threaten Crusoe's sanity - and his very soul.

TWISTED

Peter & Tim retell a classic story with that Lovecraft terror mixed in.
I would highly recommend.
Thanks again gentlemen.
Job well done!
They should look to do more like this.

Lovecraftian Rehash

Almost word for word of Defoe’s text w/ some hazy Lovecraftian nuance... Imo didn’t really bring all that much new to an already excellent adventure tale... Narration is superior and adds to the reading experience... Not the author’s best effort, but a passable listen...

Wow!

Such a great and creative retelling of tales of Crusoe, with the Cthulu myth tied in. Narrator was perfect as well!

Just so inventive

I love everything Peter Clines writes and can’t wait to see what he does next

Interesting, but….

Enjoyable if you’ve never read the original book; moderately interesting for the differences if you have.
