After attacking Devil’s Reef in 1928 the US Government rounded up the people of Innsmouth and took them to the desert far from their ocean their Deep One ancestors and their sleeping god Cthulhu Only Aphra and Caleb Marsh survive. It's impossible to think that most of you will have to wait until April to read this and I say that for one reason It's amazing Take the Cthulhu mythos take it seriously have your sympathetic main character be a Deep One and make us care for her family's plightWhat's add a than liberal dose of book loving research that include Enochian and all the best beloved titles from HPL perhaps turn it into a uest to build or re build your family's lost collection and of course butting your head against the Miskatonic UniversityAnd of course that's just a start I loved learning about the Human races of of Air Water and Earth about the great danger that the Outsiders representedThis novel paints all of the happenings in HPL's works in an all new light defines and redefines all the happenings on a much solid framework of the universe There's much less racism and fanaticism and sexism for one There's a LOT of interesting magic however And linking the plight of the Japanese Internment Camps with the two surviving children of the race of the Deep Ones was a brilliant stroke Getting us involved with the government never felt suishy especially when the main action is set in the dawn of the McCarthy eraI can't rave about this book enough It may be intended for readers who love magical realism historical novels HPL awe inspiring fantasy or anyone with a taste for vengeance against those who would steal your books but honestly I think it works on a universal scale of awesomeAnd because most of you can't get your hands on it yet Well I pity you Sincerely Just keep your eyes open for it in April and weep with joy and wonder as you read Thanks goes to Netgalley for the ARC

Winter TideD the camps and they emerged without a past or a futureThe government that stole Aphra's life now needs her help FBI agent Ron Spector believes that Communist spies have stolen dangerous magical secrets from Miskatonic University s. actual rating 25 starsIf you're not familiar with Aphra's story you should read Litany of Earth novella read it here I enjoyed this short story way than Winer Tide I really liked it but this book was so slow I read it almost directly after starting this book I expected Winter Tide to be as enjoyable but sadly it wasn't Even though this book didn't meet my expectations it certainly made me curious enough to check out Lovecraft work in the future I had no idea it held such influence before starting this book The only knowledge about this topic was Cthulhu and only by name My friend even told me that the Drowned God and the Greyjoys’ religion in general in ASOIAF is inspired by H P Lovecraft work so naturally I'll definitely read some of his booksI think no I know that a person with experience in this field would've liked this book since he'd understand all the references I didn't know what was Ruthanna Emrys' creations and what wasn't and we had lots of new words So it's me not you kind of bookWhile I appreciated the descriptions of the world and traditions it was a bit too much because it made the book slow paced The characters were likable enough Their character development was obvious by the end of the book But I still couldn't relate to any of them or even get attached to themI'd recommend this book for the fans of Lovecraft world but if it's your first try like me you might want to learn about his work to fully enjoy Winter Tide arc provided via netgalley
