A review by qalminator
Out of the Aeons by Hazel Heald, H.P. Lovecraft
3.0
One where the journalistic style mostly works, though the sudden intrusion of "we" in the middle of a third person section threw me out of the story for a moment. When it later goes to first person, it's at a section change, so that was less jarring.
Enjoyable overall. Loads of detail on Lovecraft's version of the mysterious and horrible history of the world. The unviewable deity vaguely reminds me of Weeping Angels from Doctor Who, and I can't help but wonder if it was part of their inspiration. Their effect is a lot tamer, though.
Mysterious mummy from mystical mountain makes monstrous museum mischief.
