  "The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents."
  
  A derelict ship adrift in the Pacific. An artist haunted by fantastical, sinister dreams. A police inspector confronting the diabolical rites of a depraved cult.
  
  As Francis Wayland Thurston delves deeper into these seemingly random events, he uncovers disturbing evidence of an ancient, alien God-like entity named Cthulhu and pieces together the terrible truth: Cthulhu, capable of driving humans to madness, lurks deep beneath the sea, ready to be called into being by those who don't understand the power or the danger of what they have unleashed.
  The Call of Cthulhu is a foundational work of cosmic horror that explores themes of forbidden knowledge, the lurking dread of the unknown and the weakness of the human mind when confronted by powers and intelligences from beyond our world.
  
  Though virtually unknown and financially unsuccessful during his lifetime, H.P. Lovecraft (1890-1937) is now regarded as one of the most influential 20th-century writers of supernatural horror fiction. Widely credited with inventing the "cosmic horror" genre—fiction that explores humanity's insignificance in the face of vast, unknowable cosmic forces—he also created the "Cthulhu Mythos", a shared universe of ancient alien beings and forbidden knowledge that has influenced generations of horror and science fiction writers

  A “fresh, intense, erotic, funny, and scary” novel of vampiric horror from the New York Times–bestselling author of the Stillhouse Lake novels (P.N. Elrod, author of Drawing Dead and Other Stories). After eight years of marriage, surgeon Mike Bowman and his police officer wife have snuck time into their busy schedules to celebrate their anniversary. But work is never far from Mike’s mind, which is why he finds himself in the morgue in the middle of night instead of in his wife’s arms . . .    Trying to come to terms with two young murder victims he wasn’t able to save, Mike unburdens himself to his friend and morgue attendant Adam Radburn. Good ol’ Adam, whose eyes seem bizarrely dark tonight and whose reflection in the cold storage drawers . . . doesn’t exist.    When Adam reveals his true self to Mike—and saves him from the clutches of death—Mike goes from a man trained to save lives to one who must take them to survive. And though Mike is now immune to mortal dangers, there are new threats to contend with and worse creatures who walk the Earth. One has been tracking Adam for centuries. To satisfy his bloodlust, he’s willing to destroy everyone Adam holds dear—including his new offspring.  “In The Undead, vampires lurk menacingly, and they are not the cute, cuddly, romantic-type vampires of modern urban fiction. These are serious, life-threatening, blood-sucking, kill-you-till-you’re-dead vampires . . . [A] diamond in the rough.” —Rambles
