Produktbeschreibung

Beyond London's Baker Street is a world of shadows, a world of ancient secrets and elder beings that were old before Man first appeared. At times, those eldritch entities reach from the past into the present, looming over us like a shadow out of time. Few can counter the horror of their presence with cold logic, with nerves that will not snap, with the adaptive cunning needed to survive when reality seems subsumed by madness. Sherlock Holmes is such a man. In these stories, related from various points of view, Holmes stands between humanity and the dark forces seeking to dominate the world. Included in this collection is "The Adventure of the Ancient Gods," the first-ever story blending the world of Sherlock Holmes with the Cthulhu Mythos stories of fantasy writer HP Lovecraft.

Autorenporträt

Ralph E. Vaughan is well known for his Sherlock Holmes and HP Lovecraft fiction, and was the first author to combine the literary worlds of Holmes and Lovecraft. That seminal story was The Adventure of the Ancient Gods, and has been translated into multiple languages. His pastiches have been collected in Sherlock Holmes: The Coils of Time & Other Stories and Sherlock Holmes: Cthulhu Mythos Adventures. His DCI Arthur Ravyn Mysteries, set in legend-haunted Hammershire County (England), have proved very popular with readers, as have his Folkestone & Hand Interplanetary Steampunk Adventures. His avid interest in ancient history led him to write Enigmas of Elder Egypt, a collection of essays examining the lesser known aspects of Egypt. On a lighter note, he is the creator of the Paws & Claws Mystery Adventures, stories of canine detectives who solve mysteries, protect the weak, and occasionally save the world. He is the author of some 300 published short stories, covering the period 1970-2010, about a tenth of which have been collected in Beneath Strange Stars.
