The Arkham Horror novel series brings the Lovecraftian world of the popular board game to prose fiction. Set in and around the fictional city of Arkham, Massachusetts, the books follow various investigators as they confront cosmic horrors, forbidden knowledge, and the cults that worship ancient beings. The series has been running since 2011 and features contributions from multiple authors, with S.A. Sidor being one of the most prolific contributors.
The novels range from period-piece mysteries like Hour of the Huntress and Mask of Silver to more action-oriented cosmic horror like Wrath of N’Kai and Cult of the Spider Queen. Each book typically follows a different investigator, allowing readers to enter the series at various points. More recent entries like The Forbidden Visions of Lucius Galloway and The Arcane Gamble of Harvey Walters continue to expand the universe with new characters and threats.
With over twenty novels in the lineup, the Arkham Horror fiction series has become one of the most substantial Lovecraftian fiction collections in modern publishing. The books deliver atmospheric horror grounded in the 1920s-era setting that fans of both the game and cosmic horror fiction have come to expect from the franchise.
