The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath H.P. Lovecraft "Thompson has a clear love and respect for the source material and draws the picaresque fantasy in an ornate and heavily-rendered style... It's a faithful adaptation and one that should satisfy even the most ardent of Lovecraft admirers." --Gavin Lees, Bleeding Cool. Three times Randolph Carter dreamed of the marvellous city...and three times he was snatched away while still he paused on the high terrace above it. In search of a lost city and a forgotten memory, Randolph Carter enters the dreamlands, the vast world of wonder and horror where one night can span a million years. From the jungles of Kled to the surface of the moon, through perilous encounters with bat-winged nightgaunts and man-eating ghouls, Carter's quest takes him ever closer to the secret of the marvellous sunset city...and the terror of Nyarlathotep and Azathoth, the monstrous Other Gods who stand in his way. This limited edition oversize 184-page hardcover includes a full comic adaptation of the novel by H.P. Lovecraft, as well as the related stories "The White Ship," "Celephais" and "The Strange High House in the Mist." It also features a 2-page endpapers map of the dream world, as well as an art gallery section with concept sketches and additional drawings.
