(2023) First in a Lovecraftian dark urban fantasy series featuring a professor and a student at Miskatonic University. In this one they battle Chthonians, with a showdown in an abandoned mine; and face their own pasts, with drama to be played out as the series develops. Mixed feelings: the story is fine, but I'm not comfortable with the blossoming student-teacher romance. That, and nitpicky copy-editing gripes, mean I probably won't continue.
Bookwomble Ah, I thought this looked interesting when I saw the cover and that it's lovecraftian, but, yeah, sounds like it might go the wrong kind of icky. 3d
swynn @Bookwomble Others have liked it, and I'm a bit romance-averse anyway, so YMMV. But myself, I spent two-thirds of the book trying to psychically communicate to the H & h, “Don't. Just don't. Do not,“ and while they didn't in this episode, they also didn't seem to pay me much attention. 3d
