The Wide, Carnivorous Sky and Other Monstrous Geographies

De: John Langan

Narrado por: Eric Martin

John Langan has, in the last few years, established himself as one of the leading voices in contemporary horror literature. Gifted with a supple and mellifluous prose style, an imagination that can conjure up clutching terrors with seeming effortlessness, and a thorough knowledge of the rich heritage of weird fiction, Langan has already garnered his share of accolades.

This new collection of nine substantial stories includes such masterworks as "Technicolor", an ingenious riff on Poe's "Masque of the Red Death"; "How the Day Runs Down", a gripping tale of the undead; and "The Shallows", a powerful tale of the Cthulhu mythos. The capstone to the collection is a previously unpublished novella of supernatural terror, "Mother of Stone".

Intelligent and haunting

A great mix of artistry and good old fashion horror. Langan plays with form and style while serving up some genuinely creepy and engaging stories.

incredible horror shorts

Brilliant, well-written horror short stories that drew me in and didn't let go. Cannot recommend this enough.

Recently discovered John Langan and so glad I did!

Excellent listen! Every one of these tales was an absolute joy! One of my new favorites.

Fantastic slow burn!

This book is not about jump scares- it is a about building up an incredible finally. The stories are slow, but worth all the time you put in them. It's a marathon, not a sprint. Very refreshing to find someone who can set the table for a seven course meal!

Highly worth it!
