The Shadow Out of Time (SelfMadeHero)

Tim Pendry

This graphic novel adaptation of one of Lovecraft's key science fiction fantasies is well worth adding to the library. It is a simple and clear presentation of the story.<br /><br />The central problem of filmic and graphic adaptation remains however - Lovecraft's <i>unaussprechlichen</i> horrors are best left vague in print, let alone as image, as far beyond current imaginings.

Rating All 19 Lovecraft Stories Within the Necronomicon (Audible Audio Book) ~ Part 12 - The Shadow out of Time.

I really wanted to like this story, I really did, but with its gruellingly slow start and the constant barrage of waffle from Lovecraft which leads the reader down paths which lead nowhere, I felt as if it was me down that dark and foreboding cyclopean structure.

And when you finally reach the climax of the story, the payoff was truly disappointing.
