Title: In the Mad Mountains: Stories Inspired by H. P. Lovecraft
Author: Joe Lansdale
Description:
"Joe Lansdale squares up to the Great Old Ones―and taps into rich veins of awe and wit, with always a backbeat thrum of cosmic terror."
―Kim Newman, author of the Anno Dracula series
Eleven-time Bram Stoker Award-winner Joe R. Lansdale (Bubba Ho-tep) returns with this wicked short story collection of his irreverent Lovecraftian tributes. Lansdale is terrifyingly down-home while merging his classic gonzo stylings with the eldritch horrors of H. P. Lovecraft. Knowingly skewering Lovecraft's paranoid mythos, Lansdale embarks upon haunting yet sly explorations of the unknown, capturing the essence of cosmic dread.
A sinister blues recording pressed on vinyl in blood conjures lethal shadows with its unearthly wails. In order to rescue Tom Sawyer, Huck Finn traverses the shifting horrors of the aptly named Dread Island. In the weird Wild West, Reverend Jebidiah Mercer rides into a possessed town to confront the unspeakable in the crawling sky. Legendary detective C. Auguste Dupin uncovers the gruesome secrets of both the blue lightning bug and the Necronomicon.
Exploring the darkest corners of the human psyche, here is a lethally entertaining journey through Joe Lansdale's twisted landscape, where ancient evils lurk and sanity hangs by a rapidly fraying thread.

Review
Advance Praise for In the Mad Mountains
"Joe Lansdale squares up to the Great Old Ones―and taps into rich veins of awe and wit, with always a backbeat thrum of cosmic terror. You'll never look at the howling void in the black heart of the universe the same way again."
―Kim Newman, author of the Anno Dracula series
"Here's Lovecraft's trick: he uses polyphony, many voices, to build his narrative case for the existence of cosmic squids whistling in the dark. Here is Lansdale's trick: doing it better, with a wider array of voices, including those of Poe and Twain and the classic American folk tale and his own Texas noir sensibility. This collection is a box of cursed yet delicious chocolates. Take a bite of every one!"
―Nick Mamatas, author of Move Under Ground and I Am Providence
"Horror royalty Joe Lansdale's take on cosmic horror and the Cthulhu Mythos is everything you'd hope for―bloody, profane, grimly humorous, and as vivid as Technicolor hell splashed on a 20-foot tall silver screen."
―Laird Barron, author of Not a Speck of Light
Praise for Joe R. Lansdale

"Lansdale is a storyteller in the Texas tradition of outrageousness...but amped up to about 100,000 watts." ― Houston Chronicle
"Lansdale's been hailed, at varying points in his career, as the new Flannery O'Connor, William Faulkner-gone-madder, and the last surviving splatterpunk . . . sanctified in the blood of the walking Western dead and righteously readable." ― Austin Chronicle
