United States: Cimmerian Press (LMG Books), 2014. Trade paperback, Fine,. Leo Grin. United States: Cimmerian Press (LMG Books):, 2014. Trade paperback, Fine, 508 pp.<br/> Cover artwork by: Leo Grin An as new copy. "In 1939, the prolific Wisconsin writer August Derleth launched Arkham House, one of the most influential small presses in the history of publishing. Its mission: to preserve in the permanence of hardcovers the writings of Derleth's late friend, the legendary horror fantasist Howard Phillips Lovecraft (1890-1937). During three decades of editing and storytelling, Derleth became the major player in the explosive growth of the 'Cthulhu Mythos' into a worldwide cultural phenomenon. Does the 'Cthulhu Mythos' owe its existence to the Lovecraft Mythos - or is the parallel fictional world of the Derleth Mythos even 'more' influential? Comparatively shallow works such as S. T. Joshi's The Rise and Fall of the Cthulhu Mythos are filled with misconceptions and tell only a small part of this hotly controversial story. Now join Haefele as he digs far deeper, unearthing important layers of the saga neglected by past scholars. A Look Behind the Derleth Mythos answers numerous questions with fresh evidence and thunderous revelations, covering in unprecedented detail everything from the notorious Black Magic Quote to Derleth's infamous 'posthumous collaborations' with Lovecraft. One of the most striking books of criticism ever written on the works of H. P. Lovecraft, A Look Behind the Derleth Mythos is a riveting chronicle no fan of Cthulhu, Yog-Sothoth and Nyarlathotep should miss!" This is a print-on-demand title.
