Nemo: Heart of Ice
Nemo: Heart of Ice

Happy Monday, everyone!  Here are today’s Lovecraftian links.  Click the titles to visit the websites.

Nemo: Heart of Ice (Alan Moore): Available in print AND Kindle.  In the grim cold of February 2013 a new League of Extraordinary Gentlemen book will surface: Nemo: Heart of Ice, a full-color 56-page adventure by the inestimable Alan Moore and Kevin O’Neill. It’s 1925, fifteen years after the death of Captain Nemo, when his daughter Janni Dakkar launches a grand Antarctic expedition to lay the old man’s burdensome legacy to rest. Accompanied by Nemo’s shipmate Ishmael, a ration of rum, and her father’s log, Janni embarks on a perilous journey to the bottom of the world pursued by employees of an influential publishing tycoon, who seek the return of plundered loot. Jules Verne meets H.P. Lovecraft in the final showdown beneath the Mountains of Madness – the uncharted gap in the map where time is broken and our hero’s reality is about to crack! Ready the Nautilus! She’s going back to the South Pole!

Panel- HP Lovecraft/Lovecraftian Horror: Very funny video with Leeman Kessler, at Con-GThis is the HP Lovecraft/Lovecraftian Horror panel produced by myself and Leeman Kessler of Ask Lovecraft (the only show on the internet where the reanimated corpse of Howard Phillips Lovecraft answers YOUR questions!).

At the Mountains of Madness: A really great reading.  Uvula Audio‘s James Campanella has added a complete reading of H.P. Lovecraft’s “quintessential work of horror” to his podcast feed. In China Miéville’s introduction to the Modern Library paperback edition of At The Mountains Of Madness, he describes the novella as “taxonomy as horror.” If you’re in the mood for some “mind blasting terror” – and really who isn’t these days – be sure to give it a shot.
