<p>WHAT IS THE DEEP ONE SKELETAL STRUCTURE? How does the byakhee hune organ allow them to travel through interstellar space? What organs and biological material makeup the mysterious and ancient flying polyps? These questions and more will be answered in Luis Merlo’s groundbreaking scientific study of the anatomy, biology, and ecology of more than two dozen Lovecraftian horrors! Luis Merlo, a doctor from Ecuador, turned his medical knowledge to analyzing the many beings from beyond he had encountered. Knowing of Sandy Petersen’s knowledge and experience with such beings (being Cthulhu’s Van Helsing, if you will), he contacted Sandy with the intent to publicize and publish his esoteric findings. Unfortunately, through a series of mysterious events, Luis Merlo has been missing, but luckily his writings have been found and preserved to be published posthumously on his behalf. This beautifully crafted hardcover book contains over 100 full color pages detailing the horrifying and fantastical creatures of the Cthulhu mythos by examining the biological make up in a way not seen before. This book is a valuable piece to any collector’s esoteric shelf.</p>
