One of the books that i will always
remember it's called Myths of Cthulhu. This a recompilation of short horror
stories from H.P. Lovecraft, almost all written around 1921 to 1935. Every story its located on different locations around the world.
What i loved about this book was the sole emphasis on the loss of hope and impotence humans could experience in front of all mighty beings.
I read this book when i still was a
child and i was shocked by the thrilling experience of the enormous creatures
and impressed by gods from outer space or even other dimensions. Abominations so big that a normal human would go crazy just by approaching to them.
I was amazed by the loneliness that a man can
suffer exploring an ancient city ruled by mysterious lost civilizations.
This was the first time i experienced the cool ways an author can create
such fantastic and terrific world just by words and their imagination.
I recommend this book to everyone that enjoys fantasy
setups or unsolved mysteries, but keep in mind that if you look directly at
Cthulhu there is no coming back to sanity.
