Este é das avaliações pessoalmente mais polarizantes que já escrevi. Por um lado a história é boa. Toda a influência Lovecraftiana, usando mesmo a ambientação de "At the Mountains of Madness" e "Call of Cthulhu", podia ser uma excelente homenagem a Lovecraft... se não tivesse decidido substituir a presença do próprio autor in world por CP Doveday. Essa mudança deixou toda a narrativa a saber a plágio/paródia em vez de homenagem.

One of the key characters is the peculiar patient C.P. Doveday, who writes down his weird fantasies and sometimes gets them published; but there is much more going on in Alaska than one might think. Excellent riffs on various pieces of Lovecraftiana, though perhaps a bit less emphasis on the Doctor, Ace and Hex than usual.
