Like many visionary artists throughout time from Vincent van Gogh to Baudelaire, H.P. Lovecraft did not get the credit he was due when he was alive for his special kind of genius. Dying poor and alone, he may at first appear to be yet another writer who never had a chance to fully blossom. However, with his writing the opposite is true- Instead of vanishing from the popular collective unconscious, Lovecraft even in death accrues more followers each passing year. From musicians to writers, to philosophers, academics, and sculptors, Lovecraft’s footprint only becomes more defined as time ...

Does Abdul Alhazred’s cursed Necronomicon, the best known of the 'forbidden books', really exist?

Eighth Tower presents a Mythos anthology of short stories inspired by H.P. Lovecraft and his writers circle. Based on the infamous and mysterious Necronomicon, each story is beautifully and freshly illustrated by American artist...

Developed from a personal interest in American witchcraft, Raffaelle Pezzella has brought together a gifted group of authors whose interests lie in a similar field.

Few films in the history of cinema have achieved the haunting, meditative power of Andrei Tarkovsky’s Solaris (1972). This masterpiece of science fiction transcends the genre’s typical preoccupation with technology and speculative futures, reaching instead into the depths of human consciousness, memory, and the aching poetry of the unknown. Adapted from Stanisław Lem’s novel of the same name (in turn, one of the greatest masterpieces of speculative science fiction narrative), Solaris eschews the cold rationalism of many sci-fi narratives in favor of a contemplative, almost mystical ...

With this in mind I believe that I can say with some authority that each of the stories present in this anthology will take you on a wild ride. The genesis of this book came from the current trend to write narratives inspired by cinema. Expanding upon the universes ...

"The Stalker" is Eighth Tower's tribute to the cinematic masterpiece "Stalker" (1979) by Russian director Andrej Tarkowskij. Tarkowskij 's second science fiction film after Solaris, "Stalker" is based on a novel by the Strugackij brothers, Arkadij and Boris, renowned authors of Soviet science fiction. The novel, titled "Roadside Picnic," was released in 1971. Tarkovskij adapted the basic literary work, written in the form of dispatches and intelligence reports, inspired by the Tunguska event of 1908—a probable impact in a remote Siberian area of a meteorite or possibly a comet. The Zone ...
