To Rouse Leviathan by Matt Cardin
4.0
This anthology was soooo much longer than expect. Some of them hit really really hard, impressed and horrified me (as desired) some were merely ok examples of the genre and one or two were not my thing and I speed read past them.
For an anthology this size, the fact that I can only think of one story I was simply bored by and none that I hated is really really impressive.
I almost want to purchase a physical copy just so I can reread my favorite parts and underline at will.
Every story is Lovecraftian cosmic style horror. Many, particularly in the early section, are exceedingly heavy with the references and parallels to Western Christianity. If you aren't going to be ok with either of those things, this book and these stories probably aren't gonna be for you.
