Mark McLaughlin, Bram Stoker Award-winner for Excellence in Poetry, has concentrated on Lovecraftian fiction in recent years. With THE ARRIVAL OF OUR NEW MASTER, McLaughlin returns to poetry with an epic poem that presents the tale of a future Lovecraftian Armageddon.
People believe that Caliban Storm, son of wealthy Bernard Storm, offers the guidance that the world has needed for so long. But in truth, there is something very wrong with young, handsome Caliban. He is in fact an avatar of Nyarlathotep, a malevolent deity also known as the Crawling Chaos.
Caliban Storm presents the world with a series of amazing technological advances as he rises in power. But, each advance comes with monstrous surprises, and it soon becomes apparent that Caliban has a nightmare agenda in store for the Earth. A homeless woman named Penny Blanchard sees through his tricks -- but who will believe her, and will she be able to stop Caliban in time?
Mark McLaughlin is the coauthor, with Rain Graves and David Niall Wilson, of THE GOSSAMER EYE, which won the 2002 Bram Stoker Award for Superior Achievement in Poetry. Mark McLaughlin is the author of BEST LITTLE WITCH-HOUSE IN ARKHAM and EMPRESS OF THE LIVING DEAD. McLaughlin and Michael Sheehan, Jr. have co-authored HORRORS & ABOMINATIONS, THE PRISONER OF CARCOSA, CITY OF LIVING SHADOWS, and THE HOUSE OF THE OCELOT.
