Space-Eaters

Space-Eaters

by Frank Belknap Long

In "Space-Eaters," Frank Belknap Long crafts a chilling tale of cosmic horror that predates Lovecraft's own contributions to the Cthulhu Mythos. The narrative centers on a mysterious and terrifying entity that emerges from the depths of space, threatening to consume the Earth. Long masterfully blends elements of science fiction and horror, weaving a story of existential dread as humanity faces an unimaginable threat from beyond the stars. The narrative unfolds through a series of chilling events and disturbing encounters, leaving readers with a sense of unease and a profound understanding of the fragility of existence in the face of the vast and unknowable cosmic forces.
