All kidding aside, Matt, I’m really interested in your opinion on DISPLACED PERSON.

Well well…new books described as Lovecraftian that I have never heard of! I’ll get them, but you’ll be hearing from me if I don’t buy your assessment…OK, you may end up hearing me grumble about spending an extra 10 bucks…anyway, thanks for the tip. I’m always looking to add to the library!

The House in the High Wood: A Story of Old Talbotshire
by Jeffrey E. Barlough

This is the middle part of a trilogy that I have never been able to complete. However, this works well as a stand alone novel. I would love to say more about how it is Lovecraftian, but as is the case with many well written books if I start describing it, I will start spoiling it. It’s got everything a good lovecraftian novel should have, a mysterious house, a backwoods village, a academic protagonist. The language is lyrical and characters are fully realized. Any fan of HPL will like, if not love, this book.
