The Whisperer in Darkness: A Classic Tale of Lovecraftian Horror and Alien Encounters (Deluxe Hardbound Edition) (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781806290116)

The Whisperer in Darkness by H.P. Lovecraft is a spine-chilling journey into cosmic horror and ancient alien terror. When Miskatonic University professor Albert Wilmarth begins corresponding with a recluse named Henry Akeley, he is pulled into a web of half-buried truths, forbidden knowledge, and interstellar beings who whisper of dark alliances and otherworldly technology.

At first skeptical, Wilmarth's descent into the isolated hills of Vermont reveals a truth more horrifying than he could have ever imagined: humanity is not alone, and its place in the universe is fragile at best.
