This 400-page second edition by Daniel Harms is the ultimate reference
to the names and vital stats on characters, deities, monsters,
locations, sigils, and infernal tomes that pertain to what is more
casually known as theCthulhu Mythos.
Harms lays it all out in a tone of absolute seriousness, whether he's
writing about the Dimensional Shamblers, the Empty Triumph of the Flying
Polyps, or Bugg-Shash--"an inky blackness covered with many eyes and
mouths which emit a chittering sound." Contains a foreword with a brief
history of the Mythos, notes on the second edition (about 60 percent
larger than the first), suggestions for further reading, brief notes on
its use in theCall of Cthulhugame, A to Z entries, four appendices (three on the Necronomicon, plus a time line of the Mythos), and a bibliography.--Fiona Webster
