Brian has got an excellent review of the latest #Lovecraft anthology—it's not what you think!

Cover illustration for 'The Dream Quest of Unknown Kadath'- In the foreground a stairway of dark stone descends from the upper boughs of a tree, ending surreally in a split trunk, and a quartet of cats are lounging about at the foot of the stairs. Just beyond the tree we see a field full of five-petalled yellow-orange flowers, bordered in the middle distance by low, mist-shrouded woods, with a pair of golden palaces in the distance, backed by mountains and a red setting sun.

A bizarrely twisted tree in a sunlit woodland clearing, surrounded by a carpet of dry brown leaves. The tree curls back down on itself, its thick branches snaking tightly around its own trunk and curling into the ground. The general appearance is beautifully monstrous, as though the branches were tentacles. A roughly circular scar on the bark where you might expect to see an eye, if this were a creature, strengthens its Cthulhu-like vibes. A few metres beyond it are ferns and upright trees.
