“Some stories are more explicitly Lovecraftian than others, but all demonstrate how Lovecraft's dark mythology continues to inspire outstanding tales of modern horror.” - Publisher's Weekly Many of the best weird fiction writers (and creators in most other media) have been profoundly influenced by the genre and the mythos H.P. Lovecraft created eight decades ago. Lovecraft's themes of cosmic indifference, minds invaded by the alien, and the horrors of history - written with a pervasive atmosphere of unexplainable dread - are more relevant than ever as we explore the mysteries of a universe in which our planet is infinitesimal and climatic change is overwhelming it. A few years ago, New Cthulhu : The Recent Weird presented some of the best of this new Lovecraftian fiction from the first decade of the twenty-first century. Now, New Cthulhu 2: More Recent Weird brings you more eldritch tales and even fresher fiction inspired by Lovecraft.

About the Author John Langan has taught reading and writing at Atlantic Cape Community College near Atlantic City, New Jersey, for more than twenty-five years. The author of a popular series of college textbooks on both writing and reading, John enjoys the challenge of developing materials that teach skills in an especially clear and lively way. Before teaching, he earned advanced degrees in writing at Rutgers University and in reading at Rowan University. He also spent a year writing fiction that, he says, is now at the back of a drawer waiting to be discovered and acclaimed posthumously. While in school, he supported himself by working as a truck driver, a machinist, a battery assembler, a hospital attendant, and an apple packer. John now lives with his wife, Judith Nadell, near Philadelphia. In addition to his wife and Philly sports teams, his passions include reading and turning on nonreaders to the pleasure and power of books. Through Townsend Press, his educational publishing company, he has developed the nonprofit Townsend Library, a collection of more than a hundred new and classic stories.Elizabeth Bear shares a birthday with Frodo and Bilbo Baggins. This, coupled with a tendency to read the dictionary as a child, doomed her early to penury, intransigence, friendlessness, and the writing of speculative fiction. She was born in Hartford, Connecticut, and grew up in central Connecticut with the exception of two years (which she was too young to remember very well) spent in Vermont's Northeast Kingdom, in the last house with electricity before the Canadian border.She's a second-generation Swede, a third-generation Ukrainian, and a third-generation Transylvanian, with some Irish, English, Scots, Cherokee, and German thrown in for leavening. Elizabeth Bear is her real name, but not all of it. Her dogs outweigh her, and she is much beset by her cats.Bear was the recipient of the John W. Campbell Award for Best New Writer in 2005. She has won two Hugo Awards for her short fiction, a Sturgeon Award, and the Locus Award for Best First Novel. She is the author of the acclaimed Eternal Sky series, the Edda of Burdens series, and coauthor (with Sarah Monette) of the Iskryne series. Bear lives in Brookfield, Massachusetts.Sarah Monette is the author of "Melusine" and "The Virtu", and with Elizabeth Bear is co-author of "A Companion to Wolves". She was nominated for the Campbell Award for Best New Writer in 2006.John Shirley is an award-winning author, screenwriter, television writer, and songwriter. He lives in California.Charles Stross is the author of the bestselling Merchant Princes series, the Laundry series, and several stand-alone novels including "Glasshouse", "Accelerando", and "Saturn's Children". Born in Leeds, England, in 1964, Stross studied in London and Bradford, earning degrees in pharmacy and computer science. Over the next decade and a half he worked as a pharmacist, a technical writer, a software engineer, and eventually as a prolific journalist covering the IT industry. His short fiction began attracting wide attention in the late 1990s; his first novel, "Singularity Sky", appeared in 2003. He has subsequently won the Hugo Award twice. He lives with his wife in Edinburgh, Scotland, in a flat that is slightly older than the state of Texas.Carrie Vaughn survived her air force brat childhood and managed to put down roots in Colorado. Her first book, Kitty and the Midnight Hour, launched a popular series of novels about a werewolf named Kitty who hosts a talk-radio advice show. She is also the author of Voices of Dragons, her debut novel for teen readers. Ms. Vaughn lives in Colorado.Guran is the editor of horror fiction books. She writes most of the DarkEcho.

3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Good stuff By Pepper Now here is a set of stories from more modern authors that is worth reading (as was the first one.) These stories are mostly highly engaging Lovecraftianism and kept my attention for the duration of the story. I really enjoyed "The Transition of Elizabeth Hopkins" by Caitlin R. Kiernan, and "The Boy who Followed Lovecraft," by Marc Laidlaw. Well worth having in your collection.
4 of 5 people found the following review helpful. I finished Laird Barron’s “Mysterium Tremendum” ... By Peter Olafson ... sometime after 3 a.m. on an eerily quiet Saturday night. I did not sleep well for the remainder and the world the next day seemed slightly off.I could hardly pay this haunted slowburn a greater compliment.Not far behind are Brian Hodges’ “The Same Deep Waters As You” and John Langan’s “Bloom.” I found myself watching the latter tale in my head and even adapting it as I read. (Frank Langela was somehow cast as the father.) How did that happen? I don’t know, but I take it as a signal that, while my inner copy editor wished the story longer and slower, giving us a better feel for the fascination held by the cast-off cooler at its center, I nevertheless connected with it in some less than conscious way.And then there’s Simon Strantzas’ “On Ice.” This one’s more conventional in concept -- an arctic expedition that goes bad -- but I believed it and read every word.Would that the other 15 pieces were in the same league. (The best among them is Elizabeth Bear and Sarah Monette’s “The Wreck of the Charles Dexter Ward,” which gives us a pair of sympathetic characters, but never quite delivers on its build-up.) But this was worth the admission price just for Barron’s “Mysterium” -- one of those rare stories that tap into the Mythos’s wellspring of dread. For my money, there’s nothing harder for a writer to do well -- nor more satisfying as a reader to discover.
0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. and "The Boy Who Followed Lovecraft" is an excellent capstone to the collection By Lindsey These review questions are sometimes not all that helpful when dealing with anthologies. Anyway, this anthology plays upon familiar Lovecraftian themes in new and interesting ways. All of the stories were strong this time through, but Ruthanna Emrys's "Litany of Earth" was a particular standout, and "The Boy Who Followed Lovecraft" is an excellent capstone to the collection. It's also just a really nicely bound volume that isn't too enormous, a problem with some anthologies.
