The Fisherman by John Langan is one of the most gripping Lovecraftian novels I have read in a very long time. As a fan of the genre, I've read plenty of interesting takes on cosmic horror, but The Fisherman is by far the most effective. Right from the off, you are invested in the characters and the layers of the story, with each section of the tale being as captivating as what preceded it.
This is very much the sort of book that is perfect on a cold, and rainy night. You'll open it and find that several hours have passed by. Peak cosmic horror at its best. Can't wait to read more of John Langan's work.
There's not much more I can add to the millions of glowing reviews out there about The Little Prince. It's one of the all time great books. In less than 100 pages it manages to grab your heart and give you such a Seth of emotion on finishing it. That speaks volumes about just how amazing a story it presents. This is most assuredly a book everyone should read.
