A Night in the Lonesome October by Roger Zelazny

5.0

Super fun literary/cinematic horror mashup from [a:Roger Zelazny|3619|Roger Zelazny|http://photo.goodreads.com/authors/1207671346p2/3619.jpg] with illustrations by [a:Gahan Wilson|27075|Gahan Wilson|http://photo.goodreads.com/authors/1220802778p2/27075.jpg]. Two groups gather in Victorian London, one group attempting to open the way for The Great Old Ones and the other trying to close the way. Dr. Frankenstein, Dracula, Jack the Ripper, Sherlock Holmes,and many more come into play. The story is told through the point of view of their familiars, in particular through the eyes of Snuff the Dog, familiar to "Jack". Really fun stuff.
