Winter Tide, Ruthanna Emrys

  • I am 100 pages in, until now I found a slowburn of a lovecraftian novel done VERY right.

    Mal schauen, ob sie hält, was der Anfang verspricht.

    Und am Besten daran finde ich, dass es sich HPLs Xenophobie über die Internierungscamps für Innsmouther sehr relevant stellt, indem es die inhärente Gut/Böse-Struktur verwischt, teilweise umkehrt.


    Inhalt:

    After attacking Devil’s Reef in 1928, the U.S. government rounded up the people of Innsmouth and took them to the desert, far from their ocean, their Deep One ancestors, and their sleeping god Cthulhu. Only Aphra and Caleb Marsh survived the camps, and they emerged without a past or a future. The government that stole Aphra's life now needs her help. FBI agent Ron Spector believes that Communist spies have stolen dangerous magical secrets from Miskatonic University, secrets that could turn the Cold War hot in an instant, and hasten the end of the human race. Aphra must return to the ruins of her home, gather scraps of her stolen history, and assemble a new family to face the darkness of human nature.
