Beskrivelse
In the late nineteenth century, a young boy, Herbert Hereward of Providence, R.I., made the acquaintance of a man named Eustace Daubeny, who has managed to establish telepathic communication with wormlike creatures on the moon whom he calls the Selenites. Eustace maintains that the Selenites seek to work with the denizens of Earth for mutual benefit, but Herbert suspects that the moon-creatures have a more sinister purpose. Native Americans share these suspicions, and the result is a succession of unnerving events that threaten the entire world with an unthinkable cataclysm. In this engaging tale of science fiction, Ken Faig, Jr. presents in Herbert Hereward a thinly disguised portrait of the great Rhode Island writer H. P. Lovecraft. He envisions Hereward regaining his childhood home at 454 Angell Street and living a long life, with marriage and children-all while continuing to battle the nameless menace of the Selenites.
