Why read it?

1 author picked Sherlock Holmes vs. Cthulhu as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This is possibly a more Lovecraftian selection than a Holmesian one, as the monsters and the unfathomable world of Lovecraft and Cthulhu really dominate thematically. The sinister darkness of Lovecraft really comes through here.

It’s a little heartbreaking to see Holmes in over his head, struggling with non-Euclidian magic, but very well done and a gripping story.

From Christian's list on Sherlock Holmes mash-ups.
