Pathfinder Novels with Lovecraft theme? Any suggestions?


Tales


Greetings

I know many at Paizo enjoy Lovecraft stories
I am told Carrion Crown AP has some Lovecraft themes

My question
Any novels that connect to this Carrion Crown theme?
OR just any novels with "Lovecraft" feel?

OR
Any Pathfinder Novels that take place primarily in Ustalav?

Thanks for any suggestions

You might enjoy Prince of Wolves, which involves cults, an ineffable tome, and a monster that costs 1d6/3d10 SAN.

Carrion Crown DOES have some Lovecraft themes in it. If you are just looking for more Ustalav, check out:

-Prince of Wolves by Dave Gross - Takes place in Ustalav
-Guilty Blood by F. Wesley Schneider - Takes place in Ustalav
-The Crusader Road by Michael Stackpole - Main characters are Ustalavic (I'm still reading this one)

Novels with Lovecraftian stuff in them? There are currently no novels that scream "Lovecraft!" with mind warping enthusiasm. Also, I will admit that I am not familiar enough with Lovecraft's actual writing to comment as well as I would like on the "feel." However, I have read all the Tales so far, and here's what I have read that has what I would consider Lovecraft elements:

-Called to Darkness by Richard Lee Byers - Journey goes into the Darklands, some Lovecraft creatures are encountered
-Light of a Distant Star by Bill Ward - I can't say why without giving away the whole story. It just feels Lovecraftian in a couple different ways.
-Liar's Blade by Tim Pratt - This is probably the least "Lovecraftian" on the list, but it's a darn good story. People and things get killed by tentacles, one of the characters has some strangeness about them.

Got a link for -Light of a Distant Star by Bill Ward ?

Sure! Light of a Distant Star. It's ePub only. If that's no good for you, you can get all 6 chapters as part of the Shattered Star AP, but that will cost you a lot more than just the ePub.

You can find it along with all currently published web fiction and AP fiction under Short Fiction.
