H. P. Lovecraft gilt als Begründer des modernen kosmischen Horrors – ein Erzähler, der das Grauen nicht im Sichtbaren, sondern im Unbegreiflichen verortet.

À l’heure où la lumière vacille, ces contes brefs invitent à tendre l’oreille aux frémissements du monde: un détail qui déraille, une rencontre qui se teinte de mystère, un souvenir qui se ranime.

While humans lost their knowledge of magic and monsters, the Ironwoods have been fighting against evil for centuries.

This box set collects all four stories of the Ironwood women as they get into plenty of trouble, slay their enemies, and find true love.

It is said by some that the Spellmonger’s exile to the Magelaw left Sevendor, the City of Magic, unprotected in his absence. That would be untrue, for though the mightiest mage of the era was forced by law and custom to refrain from visiting his realm in Castal, he left behind a significant body of learned and dedicated colleagues to continue his policies and see to the protection of the magelands. These were not all warmagi, nor even High Magi; indeed, the strength of Sevendor depended on magi of all types and descriptions.
