Published by the makers of the Arkham Horror board and card games, the four novellas in this book follow characters from the game, giving them depth and background, bringing them to life.

There is more danger in Lovecraftian fiction than one horrible, sleeping god.
From John's list on Lovecraftian fiction you might have missed.
