Franklyn Searight

Two Correspondents In A Race To Save the World... and More Thrilling Horrors! Herein, you'll meet a psychotic school teacher, the lineal descendent of Keziah Mason and obedient servant of mindless Azathoth; a group of youngsters attempting to bring about the return of Yog-Sothoth; a famed, bodiless detective who foils the devotees of Shub-Niggarath; Alan Hasrad on his cosmic odyssey and interview with the King in Yellow; a sentient altar awaiting the return of Tsathoqqua; Holmes and Watson investigating a severed tentacle the strangest Indian warrior you've ever seen, who has absolutely no sense of humor; Alan and his plan to summon the Warder of Knowledge; a rather nasty ex-con who unhappily meets the followers of Nyarlathotep. To round out these wicked and oft times dryly amusing morsels is ""Menace at Devil Reef,"" a lengthy novelette in which you'll share the adventures of two of the most improbable characters ever to scamper through the pages of a Lovecraftian Mythos story.

Lovecraftian Covens

Franklyn Searight is the son of Richard F. Searight, Weird Tales author and correspondent of H. P. Lovecraft. Although the elder Searight invented the evocative Eltdown Shards, occasionally employed by Lovecraft himself, he made no great effort to carry on the Cthulhu Mythos tradition. Happily, the younger Searight does! Enthusiasts have been delighted with Frankyn Searight's Innsmouth stories since the mid-seventies, but never before have all of these tales been drawn together. Also included in this long overdue single-author collection is his unpublished Mythos novel, Lair of the Dreamer, along with his posthumous collaboration with his father, "The Mists of Death."
