There are secrets beneath the waves ... older than mankind, and hungry still. In this salt-soaked collection, H. P. Lovecraft conjures horrors from the deep: ancient beings that slumber beneath black seas, forgotten isles lost to time, and coastal towns whose bloodlines trace back to something not entirely human. Each tale explores the terror of isolation—geographical and existential—as characters find themselves adrift in waters not meant to be charted. Whether wrecked on a strange shore or pulled downward by unseen forces, the fate is the same: madness, revelation … or worse.

Fate can change in an instant. But love can be everlasting. Includes eight short stories and novellas never before in audio or print.
