Ghouls of the Miskatonic: Book 1 of The Dark Waters Trilogy
Posted: Mon Aug 13, 2012 4:07 am
So I've started a new book, and it's called Ghouls of the Miskatonic, by Graham McNeill. This is one of the books in Fantasy Flight's new line of novels. And, as the subject of this topic says, this is also the first book in a trilogy.
I'm still in the first act, so I'm still being introduced to characters as the big mystery is beginning to unfold, but I gotta tell ya, this is a really good book so far. Don't misunderstand me, I'm not completely floored by it... yet... it's just that the author has done an excellent job of pulling me into the story in only a couple of brief chapters. Any reader familiar with Lovecraft's work, but more specifically with Fantasy Flight's "Arkham Horror" line of games, will love this book.
Here's a little tid-bit:
The story is just getting started, and we've already encountered some Mi-go! And as far as I can tell, they aren't even the Big Bad in the story.
I'll discuss it in greater detail once I finish it.
