Elder Sign End Times Trilogy Book One: Arkham

This book was edited by Dr. M. Ficaj Editing, http://www.drmficajacademicediting.com/Pages/contactus.aspx. Many thanks to Margaret Ficaj for her invaluable editing skills. Synopsis: Five years ago the monstrous god Cthulhu awoke from his slumber under the sea, sending most of the world into madness. In the aftermath, terrifying creatures entered into our world, a cult of human-sacrificing Cthulhu worshippers emerged, and humanity has struggled desperately to survive. Saeko, Dell, and Kelsea are three such survivors, young adults who have lived in the underground bunker of Arkham since they were fourteen. As a new threat closes in on Arkham, these three must race to combat it and save their home and families. This horror story features no love triangles and no brooding monster men drawn to frail damsels in distress. The protagonists are in a fight for their lives against monsters that kill and sometimes eat people. If you enjoy an adventure with monsters and ethical dilemmas, this book is for you. It is the first in a trilogy inspired by the works of classic horror author H.P. Lovecraft, but you don't have to be familiar with his works to enjoy it. If you are, however, you may enjoy finding elements of The Shadow Over Innsmouth, The Lurking Fear, The Unnameable, and more in this book.

About the Author

Jennifer Stanfield has been a voracious reader since she was a child and enjoys reading any and everything, but most especially fantasy, horror, and post apocalyptic stories. She loves immersive worlds and in addition to reading loses herself in video games (particularly role playing games) and table top role playing games, miniatures, and collectible card games. After years of devouring books she is finally ready to contribute her own stories to the world. Her first book is Arkham, Book One of the Elder Sign End Times Trilogy, and she is busily working on Book Two, with a bevy of other stories lined up behind it. She is indebted to her editor and her family, who have supported her foray into authorship, and especially to H.P. Lovecraft, who has been a major source of inspiration. His works are in the public domain and thus easy to find on the internet and she recommends anyone who enjoy tales of the weird and fantastic to give him a try.
