Steven Philip Jones Bücher
Steven Philip Jones ist ein amerikanischer Autor, dessen Werke sich häufig im Grenzbereich von Horror und Abenteuer bewegen und oft Elemente des Mysteriösen aufweisen. Sein Schreiben zeichnet sich durch die Fähigkeit aus, Leser in spannungsgeladene Erzählungen hineinzuziehen und dunklere Aspekte der menschlichen Psyche zu erforschen. Jones konzentriert sich darauf, fesselnde Handlungsstränge und unvergessliche Charaktere zu erschaffen, die auch nach der Lektüre nachhallen. Sein Ansatz verbindet packende Spannung mit tiefergehenden thematischen Erkundungen und etabliert ihn als eine markante Stimme in seinem Genre.
The story unfolds in the eerie, decaying town of Innsmouth, shunned by outsiders and steeped in dark secrets. Robert Loveless, grappling with a family curse of madness, is drawn to this mysterious place. As he explores its crumbling streets, he encounters Zadok Allen, an unstable local who reveals the town's horrific history. Loveless soon realizes that a sinister force from ancient times is at play, and the townspeople are determined to keep him trapped in their nightmarish reality for eternity.
"Lovecraftian weaves classic H.P. Lovecraft characters such as Herbert West and Randolph Carter and weird tales like "The Call of Cthulhu" and "The Colour Out of Space" into a new single universe modern narrative. The first novel in this series introduces The Shipwright Circle, a gaggle of scholarly and creative friends at the Miskatonic University in legend-haunted Arkham, Massachusetts. Here brilliant but neurotic research student Randolph Carter is on a ghastly personal quest, following clues in the fabled Necronomicon to a lost necropolis and a shunned house where terrible secrets lurk beneath its cellar. Meanwhile math whiz Walter Gilman delves into the bloody mysteries surrounding the infamous witch Keziah Mason with help from enfant terrible Richard Upton Pickman, poet/occultist Edward Derby, and charmer Asenath Waite of Innsmouth. And finally medical student Herbert West's inhuman experiments in reanimating the dead take an unexpected turn as a monstrous plague descends on Arkham and a veil cannibal man-beast rampages through its streets."-- Amazon
