    Presumably the book is unfinished if the author was out of space and time.

  2. towrope Says:

    It’s far more disturbing if you imagine the creepy head and the dangling legs two parts of the same person

  3. Ewan Says:

    That fella’s going to bang his head.

    If H.P Lovecraft said that about me, I’d smack him one, the cheeky sod.

  4. Dead Stuff With Big Teeth Says:

    I’m afraid I can’t find anything to criticise about the cover. Whenever I do shadow puppets, swirly blue lines follow the path of my fingertips.

    So the guy being… lowered… into the pit? Is he standing on something? If not his fore-arm strength must be impressive.

    He’s thinking to himself, “Of all the days to forget my pants…”

    @Ewan: Sheer daemonic strangeness is a highly underrated character trait. Guaranteed to increase your followers on Twitter. Put that in your Facebook profile and see your friends increase. Also removes pesky stains and unwelcome odors.

    as for the outwork, to quote ‘Blue Velvet’ and PWEI…”Pretty pretty..”

  8. Adam Roberts Says:

    That guy really needs to pluck his one unruly long blue eyebrow hair.

    If you added “over the top batshit crazy” to the Lovecraft quote it still would be lacking as a description of CAS’s writings.

    The guy in the cloak is just messing with you. The image in the middle is actually printed on the cloak. It’s just been magnified.

    Sex education class, lesson 1: Drop your pants. Look down. If necessary, take off your blindfold.

  12. Ekwavikes Says:

    Or is it creepier if the dangling legs are part of the blindfolded guy; he’s being lowered through an infinite series of portals connecting ceiling to floor ?

    …. Was it just me that thought that?

  13. Anti-Sceptic Says:

    @Ekwavikes – that’s actually the first thing that I thought as well…then my perspective shifted and it looked like the legs belonged to the skeleton guy there. A little disproportioned, but a lot funnier than the alternative ;)

  14. Scott B Says:

    I also thought it was some sort of portal from floor to ceiling and the legs were of the guy being lowered in the hole. I guess it’s most likely a whole string of people being lowered into Hell or some such, but more fun to imagine other possibilities!

  15. Robbie Says:

    Ekwavikes, I thought that too!

    The daemonically strange skeleton-guy seems to be writing “ogle” in the air.

  16. A.R.Yngve Says:

    If you can read Arabic, the ghoul-wizard dude is writing a very dirty word in the air.

  17. Herm Says:

    @ Robbie #15: At first glance I thought he was writing “He”… in an unnecessarily ornate mess of curlicues.

    “Klarkash-Ton” Smith (as H.P.L.had dubbed him), the master of awkward names: Xiccarph, Avoosl Wuthoqquan, Xeethra, Sfanomoe… A self-taught genius!
