There’s been trouble at t’mill this week, with the Schlock! super-computer developing a mind of its own and unleashing a reign of terror and horror upon the Schlock! secret underground base, as a result of which this edition almost failed to see the light of day.
In between fending off the diabolical legions of robot doom, there was time for a sad moment when we realised that Thomas C Hewitt’s epic poem Ayame’s Love had reached the end of the road. If you’ve enjoyed it, and you have a Kindle or similar high-tech device (preferably powered by steam, which would make it rather more technically advanced than the aforementioned Schlock! super-computer), you might be interested to know that the entire poem can be downloaded (free for the next day or so) from here.
Elsewhere in the edition, we have the continuation of Through the Gates of the Silver Key, in which Carter encounters the All-in-One and One-in-All that some human cults whisper darkly of as Yog-Sothoth. John L Campbell’s new tale King of the Monster House begins this week, and we also have another story from Benjamin Welton, The Watchtower, which has absolutely nothing to do with the Jehovah’s Witnesses and rather more to do with Nazi occultism. Meanwhile, in Rob Bliss’s latest offering, Jesus is drunk (again). We also have, along with our classic serials Varney and After London, a Clark Ashton Smith tale of the Hyperborean thief Satampra Zeiros.
