Gary Myers fell under the shadow of Lovecraft at the tender age of sixteen and never completely escaped it. All of his published writings have touched on the Cthulhu Mythos in one way or another. His first book, The House of the Worm, a cycle of dream fantasies in the manner of Lovecraft and Dunsany, was published by Arkham House in 1975. His second book, Dark Wisdom, a cycle of Lovecraftian horrors in a more modern vein, was published by Mythos Books in 2007. His third book, The Country of the Worm, will mark a return to the earlier fantasy mode, with a revised and expanded edition of the first book supported by an equal number of similar stories written in the decades since; it will be published by Mythos Books in the near future.Read more
