The Altar in the Hills (and Other Weird Tales) is the first story collection by Brandon Barrows, one of the 21st century’s most-fervent followers of H.P. Lovecraft, the most-fevered mind of 20th century horror and weirdness! These weird tales blend horror, science-fiction and fantasy to weave stories of darkness and terror that will alternately leave you checking dark spaces for hidden horrors and wondering at the nature of reality itself. From the horror/mystery of The Altar in the Hills to the private confessions and revelations of one of mankind’s most brilliant minds in Through the Ether, these seven stories bring with them Old Gods, strange twists and interesting characters that will both surprise and delight fans of horror fiction.

Brandon Barrows lives in the shadow-haunted hills of Vermont, the last bastion of Lovecraft's New England, with his wife and a pair of elder spawn cats, writing comic books, prose and poetry.
His comic book series JACK HAMMER was a nominee for the Project Fanboy Award in the "Best Rookie Series" category in 2010 and he was a 2013 recipient of the Ghastly Award for excellence in horror comics. He was also honored as the featured poet of the February, 2014, issue of Scifaikuest magazine.
"Brandon Barrows is walking in mighty tall footsteps. Like Ramsey Campbell and others before him, he's mining depths first excavated by H.P. Lovecraft. Yes, there is much of Lovecraft and the Lovecraftian, with purpose, here--along with Nikola Tesla, sewer workers, child therapists, dreamers, schemers, wanderers, and those going where angels not only fear to tread, but where angels go to die. Like most of Barrows's protagonists, you must 'see it for yourself'--take the plunge!" - Stephen R. Bissette (SWAMP THING, TYRANTŪ, TABOO)
