pickThis is one schizophrenic book. Two intertwined but independent plots, both with equal weight. Chaotic as always, but this time it kind of works—or maybe I just got used to the setting and the characters enough for it not to bother me...?
(Although the part with tiger demons from India IS kind of superfluous—especially since it doesn‘t tie into the “main” plot almost at all)
Still, I kind of liked it...?

I‘ve been slowly picking up the volumes of this complete #williamhopehodgson set. If #Lovecraft was the “father” of #cosmichorror then Hodgson was the grandfather of cosmic horror. Anyone into classic horror or seafaring horror should look into his work.
Just found out I get to go to StokerCon for work since it's being hosted in my city!!! It's a big nerdy horror convention and now I'm dedicating the month and a half til the con to reading the Stoker Awards nominees. ☠😱☠😱
