Synopsis

New terrors spawn in H.P. Lovecraft's fear-haunted realm...

H.P. Lovecraft's The Shadow Over Innsmouth is an integral part of the Cthulhu Mythos. With his encouragement, many diverse hands have explored and enhanced Lovecraft's race of batrachian Deep Ones and their shadowed dwelling places beneath the ocean. But there has never before been a fictional history of Innsouth and its icthyoid denizens.

Using the original novella as inspiration, these bestselling writers depict the dreadful decline of the decaying Massachusetts seaport since the late 1920s, through the war years, the rock 'n' roll era, the recent political upheavals in Eastern Europe, into the modern scientific age and beyond.

As the decades pass, Dagon's spawn spreads out from the American east coast to cast its shadow over the British Isles and European mainland, while Innsmouth itself undergoes a metamorphosis both startling and unexpected...
