A Lovecraftian short story that takes you to the end of the world – and beyond.

Pollution has slowed the flow of the oceans’ currents to a crawl. Global warming is causing Antarctica to thaw, slowly but surely. Miskatonic University once sent an expedition to the Mountains of Madness, and they now decide it is time to voyage there again.

A young public relations consultant, Nicholas Pickman, is in charge of telling the world about the expedition’s adventures. How will he tell the world that the thawing of the long-frozen continent could unleash an array of ancient monsters, both alien and preternatural, as well as an unspeakable hybrid…?

Together, Mark McLaughlin and Michael Sheehan, Jr. have written many collections of dark fantasy/Cthulhu Mythos fiction, including HORRORS & ABOMINATIONS, NIGHTMARES & TENTACLES, THE WRATH OF NYARLATHOTEP, WEIRD WORSHIP, and more.
