By delving into an archive that has been hidden away and sealed from prying eyes for over one hundred years, the reader is transported through time and experiences the story as pieced together from different sources. The story comes alive as the reader interacts with over fifty documents including letters, a handwritten journal, drawings, telegrams, a broadside, numerous burned fragments, newspaper clippings, and a cast resin artifact central to the tale. This original story is a fictionalization of the Tunguska Event of 1908 and plays upon the mythos created by H. P. Lovecraft. The story follows an intrepid group of explorers from Lovecraft's fabled Miskatonic University as they travel in search of ancient cultures in the heart of Siberia and find far more than they bargained for. Characters and locations from Lovecraft's stories all play a part in this old fashioned tale of adventure and cosmic horror."--Artist's description. 600 10 $a Lovecraft, H.
