City in the Ice

Lovecraftian tales of the unknown and unimaginable. Islands that appear and disappear, ghost ships floating out of the fog to drift into shipping lanes centuries after being reported missing, odd animal remains everywhere meeting no previously known form—the world is a more confusing and mystical place than most of us know or understand.

In this volume, we examine a few of those mysteries. We concentrate mostly on Antarctica, but there is a foray or two outside its icy regions. Some of the events referred to by the stories are fictional, some incredibly true. See if you can discern one from the other.
