Celebrated horror writer H. P. Lovecraft’s first major tale of his Cthulhu Mythos began an entire sub-genre of the macabre and in that story, he made Australia a crucial location in his supernatural universe. Now, a group of Australia’s most accomplished writers of speculative fiction return to the promise of the master. This collection not only includes the best Australian Lovecraftian fiction but also presents new stories by internationally-lauded Australian creators Lucy Sussex, Kaaron Warren, and Janeen Webb. The book is the first in a series that will provoke fresh new imaginings of cosmic horror visited upon the land down under, and remind readers that when the stars come right, things for the inhabitants beneath the Southern Cross may go very, very wrong.
