Call of the Cthulhu series
Another must have from Chaosium. Chaosium always puts together good mythos compilations, and this one lives up to the standards set by other volumes.Geared toward the hardcore HPL fan, it features stories centering on the often mentioned but rarely featured Black Goat.Editor Price's story and Ramsey Campbell's are the stand outs but the others are definitely not just filler.definitely worth it for Lovcraft fans.. Goat's Head Soup Larry E As usual with any anthology, you like some of it, you don't like other parts. But this edition of Chaosium's series is better than most. As usual, you get the pre-Lovecraft influences in a trio of ghost stories. I enjoy these late-19th/early 20th century curiosities. I intend to look for more of these gems in other anthologies. Ramsey Campbell's "Moon Lens" is out and out imitation Lovecraft. But if you didn't like tales Lovecraftian, why would you buy this? Richard Tierney's Simon of Ghitta stories are Lovecraft meets Sword and Sorcery an. Surprisingly decent "The Shub Niggurath Cycle" is really reaching for a theme. Some of it is about goats, other parts are about fertility gods, and some just have an invocation of "Ia! Shub blah-blah-blah". Surprisingly, I saw no "dark-young" themed stories. Anyway, what I found to be good was surprising:"The Horn of Vapula", "The Demoniac Goat", "The Ghostly Goat of Glaramara": these were pleasantly "MR James"ish ghost stories; tales from the English countryside about some or other ghostly phenomenon related by someone supposedly too educated/cultured/mature
