With The Strange Dark One, W. H. Pugmire collects all of his best weird fiction concerning H. P. Lovecrafts dark god, Nyarlathotep. This avatar of the Great Old Ones is Lovecrafts most enigmatic creation, a being of many masks and multitudinous personae. Often called The Crawling Chaos, Nyarlathotep heralds the end of mortal time, and serves as avatar of Azathoth, the Idiot Chaos who will blew earths dust away. Many writers have been enchanted by this dark being, in particular Robert Bloch, the man who, through correspondence, inspired Wilum Pugmire to try his hand at Lovecraftian fiction. This new book is a testimonial of Nyarlathoteps hold on Pugmires withered brain, and these tales serve as aspects of a haunted mind. Along with stories that have not been reprinted since their initial magazine appearances, The Strange Dark One includes To See Beyond, a sequel-of-sorts to Robert Blochs groovy tale, The Cheaters; and the books title story is a 14,000 word novelette set in Pugmires Sesqua Valley. The Strange Dark One is a collection of Lovecraftian fiction by W. H. Pugmire. Each tale is beautifully illustrated by the remarkable Jeffrey Thomas, who is himself one of todays finest horror authors.
