THE WEB OF EASTER ISLAND.
Sauk City, Wisconsin: Arkham House, 1948. Octavo, cloth. First edition. 3068 copies printed. "A Cthulhu Mythos novel in which an archaeologist is unlucky enough to find the key which will open a dimensional gateway for the monstrous titans which set in train the evolution of mankind. As with most of Wandrei's work, the novel deploys SF motifs as well as supernatural ones in the service of unrestrained melodrama; the result is saved from silliness only by its zest." - Barron (ed), Fantasy and Horror (1999) 4-158. Barron (ed), Horror Literature 3-205. Bleiler, The Guide to Supernatural Fiction 1657. Tymn (ed), Horror Literature 4-219. A fine copy in fine dust jacket. (#169007) (29727). Item #29727
