"e;Out of the Aeons"e; is a 1935 short story by American author H. P. Lovecraft. In 1879 the captain of a ship comes across a mysterious island that seems to have risen from the sea. Upon exploring it, he discovers a strange scroll in the clutches of a long-dead skeleton. After his extraordinary finds are displayed in a museum, the island completely disappears never to be found again. When his findings are linked to a legendary tale concerning a long-forgotten god, many people become interested in the mummy's scroll-but not all are who they appear to be. A classic example of horror fiction by master of the form, "e;Out of the Aeons"e; will not disappoint lovers of the genre. Howard Phillips Lovecraft (1890-1937) was an American writer of supernatural horror fiction. Though his works remained largely unknown and did not furnish him with a decent living, Lovecraft is today considered to be among the most significant writers of supernatural horror fiction of the twentieth century. Other notable works by this author include: "e;At the Mountains of Madness"e;, "e;The Rats in the Walls"e;, And "e;The Shadow Over Innsmouth"e;. Read & Co. is publishing this classic short story now as part of our "e;Fantasy and Horror Classics"e; imprint in a new edition with a dedication by George Henry Weiss.
