Publisher's summary

Earth is home to us, but to others it is a prison planet, where alien convicts are imprisoned in human bodies. Four tales by veteran Cthulhu Mythos authors explore the collisions between humans and unwilling visitors among us.

“Broken Singularity" by David Conyers: Former soldier Harrison Peel is resurrected on a vacuum shrouded moon on the edge of the galaxy after a million-year dead-but-undreaming slumber, and forced to repeat the same day endlessly. Why is he ordered to collect alien artefacts, and how is his fate entangled with three peculiar incidents in Earth’s distant past? Can he break the endless repeating day before he descends into eternal madness?

“The Prisoner from Beyond" by Matthew Davenport: After the Civil War, two surviving members of the Esoteric Cavalry head west to recruit and tame the land. Barrenstand is a town with a problem—a new man at the edge of town is giving them nightmares. Who is the stranger, and where exactly did he come from?

“Body Snatchers" by David Hambling: In 1920’s London, investigator Harry Stubbs is drawn into a case involving an apparent madman with impossible knowledge, and discovers a web of strange sects, multiple identities, and an ancient conflict between occult powers, leading to an unforgettable graveyard encounter.

“Leng’s Labythinth" by John DeLaughter: Exchange student Francois Delapont is a man on the run. After he witnesses a ritualistic murder in Chartres, inhuman forces pursue him to discover the apocalyptic secrets behind the cabalistic rites he observed. Will he escape them, or die during an interrogation that promises to literally turn him inside out?

listened to the Conyers stuff 3 times...

I enjoyed the book, but I am a fan of David Conyers, so his work is what hit me. Having followed Harrison Peel on so many mindbending adventures, Im not sure how to feel about this story's ending.
Infinite Horror or Infinite Bliss? Leaving me to decide in which this version of Harrison will spend eternity, is a dirty trick. it's a cold, unfeeling, indifferent universe where none of the outer gods or ultimate races care about humanity in the least. I like to think that Conyers is the Top of that Pyramid of entities for this lore's universe and he actually did have a soft spot for Harrison. Peel deserved a break.

Lovecrafty takes


I’m a real sucker for anything Lovecraftian. And one of my favorite things is seeing other people’s interpretations of the universe that HP created years ago.

This is book you can’t beat you get practically nine hours of solid eldritch storytelling. Yes, some tales or winners in a couple or maybe just above mediocre but they’re all good and enjoyable in the whole.

I don’t think any rations bad, I wasn’t stunned or blown away by it, but I think a few more listens on this narrator and other books will probably make my opinion more favorable.

Give the book a shot if you like cosmic horror or anything, Lovecraft created, you will enjoy this book.
