THE GREATEST NECROMANCER of H. P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos, Abdul Alhazred, comes to vivid and haunting life in this compelling first codex from the most fabled and infamous grimoire of black magic that the world has ever known: THE NECRONOMICON. Herein lie the terrible secrets of Great Cthulhu and his cult, of the sunken city of R'lyeh, of Alhazred's necromantic incantations, of the Nameless City, of Nyarlathotep, and the horrible cannibalistic Ghuls who stalk the storm-wrought wastelands of Yemen and Arabia. But know this: where horrors stride from between the spheres, there rises beauty as well. Experience the wonders of the life of Alhazred: the spice caravans, the Tower of Babel, the Hanging Gardens, the unearthly paradise of doomed Sarnath within the Dreamlands, and share in his dark adventures as he seeks to resurrect his lost beloved, the murdered Adaya. What is the horrible secret of Adaya's second life, and how did Alhazred come to be the death-sworn enemy of the Cult of Cthulhu? All of the answers are to be found in THE NECRONOMICON, CODEX ONE: THE CTHULHU REVELATIONS. Part epic horror, part dark fantasy, part love story and part tomb-delving adventure, THE NECRONOMICON, CODEX ONE: THE CTHULHU REVELATIONS is a vast and ambitious chronicle which has taken fifteen years to come to light. From the author of the post-apocalyptic epic FROM THE FIRE. A Wonderland Imprints exclusive.
