I’ve been lucky enough to score a slot in the upcoming book Cthulhu: Deep Down Under. The stories and artwork are all based around H.P. Lovecraft’s Cthulhu Mythos series, with the twist that these pieces are all set in Australia.

So the book has been done, and all the artwork assigned and completed. Some great Australian artists and writers have been attached to this project, and we’ve nabbed a foreword by none-other than RAMSEY FRICKEN CAMPBELL.

I’ve had a look at the finished galleys, and Cthulhu: Deep Down Under is simply incredible. So where is this book, I hear you ask?

Here’s the kicker – outside of a few prototype copies, it doesn’t exist yet. Our fearless editors have launched a crowd-funding model to get the anthology off of the ground.

The way it works is that you, the discerning reader, throw a few bucks into the pot. At the bare minimum level of funding, you will get the e-book. The next level up, you pre-order the paperback version. So you’re effectively pre-ordering your copy.

Depending on how much you contribute to the project, your rewards increase. There are all sorts of limited edition things, posters, mentoring sessions with professionals, the works.

The crowdfunder campaign has officially kicked off at the Armageddon Con, and in a short couple of days it’s already grabbed a swag of donations/purchases. Get amongst it – I might be biased, but I still reckon it’s a great book.
