It is only through sheer luck that two of them manage to escape, leaving the gnarled bodies of their companions, and live to tell the tale as a warning for all those who come after.įLAME TREE 451: From mystery to crime, supernatural to horror and fantasy to science fiction, Flame Tree 451 offers a healthy diet of werewolves and mechanical men, blood-lusty vampires, dastardly villains, mad scientists, secret worlds, lost civilizations and escapist fantasies. At the Mountains of Madness is a journey into the core of Lovecraft's mythos-the deep caverns and even deeper time of the inhospitable continent where the secret history of our planet is preserved-amidst the ruins of its first civilization, built by the alien Elder Things with the help of their bioengineered monstrosities, the shoggoths. In a gripping tale of fast-paced discovery an entire alien ecosystem is uncovered, and an ancient and bloody battle into which the adventurers have been drawn. Lovecraft indulges his talent for the macabre and horrific. The deliberately told and increasingly chilling recollection of an Antarctic expeditions uncanny.

As a new expedition to Antarctica is planned a dark tale emerges of a previous, life-threatening adventure.
