Eneboeren Willum har trukket sig tilbage fra verden i en næsten tilsandet familiegård i Nordjylland. Hans verden invaderes, da han en dag får at vide, at hans mor er død. Mens han forsøger at få hende begravet i sandet omkring gården, funderer han over tilværelsen og sin familie, der alle har levet et barskt liv i 1700-tallets Danmark.

In April 1936, Lovecraft’s novella The Shadow Over Innsmouth was first published. Written five years earlier, but oddly rejected by every magazine it was ever submitted to, it accurately described a series of events that actually happened in February 1928, when federal government agents raided Innsmouth and attempted to eradicate a deviant race of ichthyoid creatures which had been interbreeding with the human population for decades, if not centuries. Following these startling revelations, the F.B.I. delved into the stories that Lovecraft was publishing as “fiction.” Incredibly, it soon began to emerge that the events in Innsmouth were not a solitary event—and the monstrosities the author described really did exist.To combat these cosmic horrors, the Human Protection League (H.P.L.) was established to investigate and combat these otherworldly invaders. Down through the decades since, the only defense that has stood between humanity and these creatures of chaos are the agents of the H.P.L.—or, as they are sometimes known to those few who are aware of their existence: The Lovecraft Squad.

Virtually every month for fourteen years, Gene Burnett wrote a history piece under the title "Florida's Past" for Florida Trend, Florida's respected magazine of business and finance. The first volume of collected essays from that series proved so popular among book readers that two more volumes have been published. Pineapple Press is now proud to make them available in paperback. Burnett's easygoing style and his sometimes surprising choice of topics make history good reading. Each volume divides Florida's people and events into Achievers and Pioneers, Villains and Characters, Heroes and Heroines, War and Peace, and Calamities and Social Turbulence. Read a chapter and you'll find you've gone on to read more. Read this volume and you'll find yourself looking for the next two. Next in series > > See all of the books in this series
"Hjernen har ikke noget sted at gøre af det der står i denne bog - der er ikke en skuffe der har været åbnet før, altså hele det univers er simpelthen så langt ude og det er det der gør det så fantastisk at læse... Jeg har aldrig læst noget der er så tosset og samtidigt så poetisk..." - Johan Olsen (Biolog og forsanger i Magtens Korridorer)"Willum havde ingen arme. I en tavs verden af blinkende lamper lå han som et blegt hylster og omsatte uhyre mængder medikamenter af forskellig observans til en række interessante resultater i dr. Råger S.B. Heinrichs forsøgsrapporter. Willum havde gennem sin opvækst lagt krop til eksperimenter, der stadig den dag i dag slår verden med f...
