A review by supercthulhu
In the Hands of the Unknown by A.E. Hellstorm
4.0
I really enjoyed this book, to the point that when I finished I couldn't help but see if there was a sequel (there is!).
So what's it all about? The best way to describe it is as crime procedural set in a Lovecraftian universe. There is a small team of people chasing down a pretty nasty crime, then... it gets weird.
Solid writing, believable characters, romance that makes sense. The horror builds slowly but surely. There were a few moments that might have led to more, but overall a thouroughly enjoyable book that I don't hesitate to recommend.
