I've been reading Campbell's books for nearly as long as he's been writing them, and out of the several horror traditions that he's spent the most time on, the Lovecraft-homage stuff has usually been the least interesting to me even though I get why ...more | |

It's not as formally inventive as some of his other collage novels like Ice Haven, and it doesn't run on fantasy genre energy like Patience (not counting the ghost-radio bit, and a jarring swerve into horror at the very end); it feels to me more like ...more | |

I'm not sure what I expected, but The Great God Pan is such an odd mix of things and I definitely haven't seen anything else quite like it from that period. Some of it is very Victorian in structure and attitude, in other ways it seems pretty far ahe ...more | |
