A review by aidenblasi
Out of the Aeons by Hazel Heald, H.P. Lovecraft
4.0
More of a 3.5
It's one of those Lovecraft stories which is mostly exposition and wordlbuilding, which might not be everyone's cup of tea. Also pretty racist (lots of nefarious "swarthy" foreigners). But that kind of comes with the territory reading Howard. The ending is delightfully spooky, which is the story's saving grace for me. Definitely worth reading if you're a fan of the mythos
