I love H. P. Lovecraft’s mythology and cosmic horror in general, and this book presents a world where the Old Ones have won. I really liked the descriptions of places and individuals and how the author depicts the evolution of a humanity completely influenced by Cthulhu and the rest of the creatures of the Mythos. There is action, magic, and heartache. I think the main character is a great example of someone that would not give up, because there is always something to fight for.
I would recommend this novel to fans of the Genius of Providence, but also to readers that would like to see humanity exist in a world that is not theirs.
