✦ Synopsis

Overview: Tales of the Primal Land is a three book series of Cthulhu Mythos stories by legendary British author Brian Lumley. Set in Earth's ancient immemorial past on the pre-Atlantean island continent of Theem'hdra. The first book in the series 'The House of Cthulhu' introduces Theem'hdra and the Wizards, Monsters, Barbarians and Elder Gods who dwell there by way of a series of connected stories and is primarily influenced by H.P. Lovecraft and Clark Ashton Smith ( The Hyperborea & Zothique stories). Book two introduces our hero Tarra Kash ( Think Conan as a Cossak rather than a Barbarian ) and continues his many adventures through book three, the second and third books are more influenced by Robert E. Howard and are a blend of Sword & Sorcery and Lovecraftian Horror. A great series that spans several genres and introduces characters who would feature or reappear in later Lumley works such as the Sorcerers Mylakhrion the Immortal and Teh Atht.
