Reviews

Fast-paced, relentlessly horrific, and loaded with twists and surprises, Fahertys dark tour of Innsmouth delivers a gut-wrenching tale of madness, monsters, and heartbreak. Action-packed cosmic horror at its gruesome best! -- James Chambers, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of The Engines of Sacrifice and On the Night Border
"With SINS OF THE FATHER, JG Faherty injects new life into one of H. P. Lovecraft's most storied settings the demon-haunted town of Innsmouth. With a tale that spans from Innsmouth to Arkham, from the spaces between the stars to the depths of the sea, from Miskatonic's marbled halls to Antarctica's icy plains, Faherty will have you smelling the stench of rotting fish...and feeling the fingers of clammy, cold hands around your throat." -- Brett J. Talley, author of THAT WHICH SHOULD NOT BE and HE WHO WALKS IN SHADOW.
Written with that familiar first person Lovecraftian style, author JG Faherty brilliantly offers stomach-churning nightmares and rotted flesh abominations. He paints a perfect cinematic scenery with a limelight for roaming watery deaths and walking corpses that only The Ancient Ones could create.
