Iron Cthulhu Apocalypse

Bad news: Mark Samuels, age 56, has died. For those who don't know, he was an absolutely excellent writer of weird horror and associated genres. You can find some narrations of his work on Youtube pretty easily. If you're a fan of Ligotti or Lovecraft, you'll love Samuels's stuff, too. Recently I was starting to re-read his work. My first comment on the community posts, in fact, was me saying to read Mark Samuels. He's one of the few writers I'd recommend without hesitation, as he tended to write more accessible stuff without sacrificing truly weird and dark aesthetics. Definitely one of the all-time greats. I'm hoping some kind of "Complete Works" is published soon, including some of his earliest, hard-to-find stuff. Anyway, RIP. Check him out if you haven't already.

This is sad news... Thank you for letting us know . I read the age of decaying futurity about 3 years ago based on the suggestions on this channel and that was a rare and precious experience ( from my point of view ) . RIP .

Thanks for the tip. The world always withers just a little when a great imagination passes away.
