| Joseph Pulver’s novel _Nightmare’s
Disciple_ mixes the Cthulhu Mythos and hard-nosed detective genres... integrating them into a modern serial murder novel |
|
– Thomas Harris meets H. P.
Lovecraft. The plotline is kept off-kilter so that the reader doesn't
know whether the Lovecraftian pantheon is just part of the serial
killer's delusional ego or a terrifyingly real threat until just the
right moment. Joe Pulver is a long-time fan of H. R. Giger’s art work.
Of interest to Giger fans will be Pulver’s many mentions of Mr. Giger
and his stunning art, and Pulver’s use of them as a minor plot device.
Describing _Nightmare’s Disciple_, Brian Lumley, author of the
bestselling “Necroscope” series, said, "How to describe this
novel by Joe Pulver? Pulver-izing! Joe really puts the Mythos through
all its paces across what amounts to a cosmic chart of
Lovecraft-land."_Nightmare’s Disciple_ is published by Chaosium
(Oakland, CA.). It is $14.95 |
