Price offers ten new tales and three reprints concerning H.P. Lovecraft's Innsmouth, a seedy little town on the north shore of Massachusetts--home to the hybrids who live there, the strange city rumored to exist nearby under the sea, and those who nightly lurch and shamble down fog-bound streets.
these are 13 of the most bizarre stories you may ever read; the original "Shadow Over Innsmouth" was very strange but these are even more bizarre.
My favorites: The Weird Shadow Over Innsmouth by HPL and John S. Glasby; The Old Ones' Signs, by Pierre Comtois; Fleas of the Dragon by CJ Henderson; Mail Order Bride, by Ann K. Schwader and The Deep End, by Gregory Luce.
All of these stories share a common thread that is Innsmouth, site of the Esoteric Order of Dagon and other bizarre occurrences. Most of them are very good; a couple are kind of tongue-in-cheek comedies and a couple of them just didn't do it for me. But, such is the chance that you take when you pick up a story anthology.
Overall...recommended if you want to read more about the doomed city of Innsmouth. Be sure you read the original before you start this book! ( )

Narratologists, among whose eager acolytes I count myself, make a couple of distinctions which I think will aid us in understanding a nagging hint of fundamental wrongness in the narration of "The Shadow over Innsmouth."
