<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>This is a tale of terror. The barren, windswept interior of the Antarctic plateau was lifeless or so the expedition from Miskatonic University thought. Then they found strange fossils of unheard-of-creatures, carved stones tens of millions of years old and, finally, the unspeakable, mind-twisting terror of the City of the Old Ones.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>A dark, dazzling adaptation of H. P. Lovecraft's best-known tale is back in print </b><br /> <br /> "For a second we gasped in admiration . . . and then vague horror began to creep into our souls." September 1930. A scientific expedition embarks for the frozen wasteland of Antarctica. But the secrets they unearth there reveal a past almost beyond human comprehension--and a future too terrible to imagine. By taking scientific fact so seriously, <i>At the Mountains of Madness </i>(1936), H.P. Lovecraft's classic take on the "heroic age" of polar exploration, helped to define a new era in 20th-century science-fiction.<br /><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>H.P. Lovecraft</b> was one of the most influential horror writers of the 20th century. <b>I.N.J. Culbard</b> is an award-winning artist widely known for his graphic novel adaptations of the classics. He collaborated on a critically acclaimed Sherlock Holmes series with Ian Edginton and worked on <i>The New Deadwardians</i> for Vertigo, <i>Dark Ages</i> for Dark Horse, and <i>Brass Sun</i> for 2000AD. His first original graphic novel, <i>Celeste</i>, was nominated for the British Comic Award.<br />
