Story
In great cities of the world, humanity congregates, and commerce, culture, and cosmopolitan sophistication blossom in their gardens. But in the shadows that lie beyond the broad boulevards and glare of electric lights, great cities give birth to something else. In these shadows thrives a dim underworld, peopled by nefarious characters brought together from every godforsaken corner of the globe. Can a lone policeman make a stand for decency against the godless denizens of New York’s most loathsome slum, or will he find himself consumed by the filth and depravity of nameless cults?

Unless, of course, you happen to live near the decayed New England village of Dunwich, have seen the mad fires blazing from the ancient stone circles atop Sentinel Mountain, and remember the horrible events of 70 years ago.

This is a great introduction to Lovecraft which combines elements of Dagon, Call of Cthulhu, and Shadow Over Innsmouth into a 1930’s style “breaking news” radio broadcast. I highly recommended this. I only wish it was longer!

War of Worlds tells it all
I listened to this yesterday for a second time. I enjoyed it a lot more than the first time I listed to it. It is very nicely done. BTW they do apologize for the liberties they take with the original stories. So, it is intentional. I say enjoy it for what it is.
----------------------------------
I wandered about the subtitle before I bought this dramatized production, but I hoped it would be a dramatization of the story Dagon. It's not. It is an original HPLHS production inspired by Dagon and The Shadow Over Innsmouth.
If that is what you want them you are in good shape. I gave this a try because the H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society produces outstanding readings of Lovecraft 's work and so I decided to give one of the dramatizations a try.
This production strays too far from the source material for my tastes. Though I can appreciate the quality of the production it isn't what I wanted. My plan was to return it upon completion. But, the last minute of the recording made me smile and changed my mind about returning it. I will want to listen to this again.
So, it isn't what I was looking for and I don't know if I will get more of the dramatizations or not. I recommend this to listeners interested in a dramatization that strays far from the source materials. I especially recommend this to.fans of the old War of the Worlds radio broadcast.

Fantastic and Fun
This is an absolutely fantastic edition of the H.P. Lovecraft Society’s dramatization of the classic story Dagon. The original story was very short and ambiguous. The Society has crafted a frightening tale, mirroring the spirit of the old time radio dramas. Superb cast and production make a highly entertaining work come alive. I definitely need to get more of these!
Tip. You might want to listen to “The Shadow over Innsmouth” and “The Mountains of Madness” first.

How do you take a short story and flesh is out for an entire DART episode? Brilliant idea, combine it with the greatest episode of radio theater ever! While the news bulletins here are quite as believable as Orson Wells' were, this is still the perfect treatment for this story. Love that its treated as a sequel to Shadow Over Innsmouth as well as the recurring characters!

Radio broadcast. It's similiar to the audiobook: "At the Mountains of Madness". I prefer hands on instead of hearing the action from a radio. It's interesting though and surely a worthwhile listen.
I'll need a rerun or two before I can properly review this book. Developers will get full stars until further notice.

Much more Adaptation than direct reading, "Dagon" is here presenting a pseudo sequel to "The Shadow Over Inssmouth...
However it's still brilliantly narrated by the HP Lovecraft historical society.
