I'm about halfway through Charles Stross's latest, The Nightmare Stacks. It's a good series for Lovecraft fans, but I'm not thrilled with this one. He's gone about as far as he can with Bob Howard, and this one has a different main character.

I listened to the audio version of this and the people reading the stories all did great jobs.

A collection of horror stories from a variety of people. Its a great collection. Some of them are fantastic and some are not, but generally they're all good. Except the one from Ethan Hawke. Not a horror story at all, not sure why its in the collection. Anyway I highly recommend it. Lots of fun. Some of it reminds of the Borderlands anthologies which are amazing. Some of it wasn't that new, but still worth the listen.

Finished Cthulhu: The Mythos And Kindred Horrors by Robert E. Howard. Great stories, powerful story telling. "Pigeons From Hell" still packs a punch thirty years later but "Worms Of The Earth" read for the first time border line crazy, really bizarre and really cool.

Next up for Halloween:


This is a genuine greatest hits collection, all the famous ones here. Robert Bloch intro an extra treat.

65mm was meh. Evil movie theater. Generic black person has the voodoo power. Nobody else's skin color is mentioned so they're all white. The writing was meh. Characters were nothing special. Most of what I expected to happen did happen. One of the main characer is a wife who apparently does nothing all day. Its never talked about except apparently she stays in the house and occasionally goes shopping for groceries. Kind of silly. I was able to finish it, but I would not recommend it. Her other book Shadow Twin is a decent read and a sort of metaphor for a parent who abused their child. That book I can recommend.
