This is a Cthulhu Mythos tale told in the tradition of Lovecraft's revisions. The short story reproduces a once lost and now newly found letter written by the classical author, Lucian of Samosata, with content chilling to any antiquarian or bibliophile unfortunate enough to peruse it, for the letter contains information about a horror from the remote historical past, a horror that might just still be around today. If you like the revisions of H.P. Lovecraft, you might like this also.
