Carter & Lovecraft by Jonathan L. Howard

Those unfamiliar with the Cabal books, especially readers with a taste for modern-day urban fantasy, should also be pointed in this title’s direction.” - Booklist “Howard brings the fine writing and attention to detail (character, dialogue, environment) that he developed in the Cabal series to this new book, and his fans should follow him to Rhode Island. Lovecraft for the 21st century.” - Publishers Weekly “This refreshingly original novel updates the eldritch horrors of H.P. As readers wait for the next installment, they will ask themselves where Howard will take Daniel and Emily next.” – Booklist Its central characters are even more compelling than they were in their first appearance (here there’s an added fishout-of-water element), and the story is diabolically clever and convoluted. But the second Carter and Lovecraft novel, following Carter & Lovecraft (2015), reboots the heck out of the series…This is a wonderful novel, ambitious on many levels and thoroughly successful. “It’s not often one sees the reboot of a series that’s only one book old. 'This is an entertaining and meticulously crafted mix of speculative history, suspense, sardonic humor, and cosmic horror.' - Publishers Weekly To fight it, Lovecraft must walk a perilously narrow path between forbidden knowledge and soul-destroying insanity. The trail takes Lovecraft and him to a distant, abandoned island, and a conspiracy that threatens everything. Carter finds himself working for the German secret security service to uncover the truth behind a major scientific joint project that is going suspiciously well. In this world, there are monsters, and not all of them are human.īut even in the Unfolded World, there are still bills to pay and jobs to do. In this world the Nazi Großdeutschland is the premier superpower, and is not merely tolerated but indulged because, in this world, the Holocaust happened behind the ruins of the Iron Curtain and consumed only Bolsheviks, Communists, and others the West was glad to see gone.

In this world, the Cold War never happened because the Soviet Union ceased to exist in 1941. The Unfolded World is a bitter and unfriendly place for Daniel Carter and Emily Lovecraft.
