Your Favorite Cthulhu Mythos Story

"'There is an abyss of being which man has never fathomed.'"
-- Frank Belknap Long, "The Hounds of Tindalos"

Paws down, my favorite Cthulhu Mythos story is "The Hounds of Tindalos" by Frank Belknap Long. Long was the first writer to contribute a tale to H. P. Lovecraft's "Cthulhu Mythos" group of stories. "The Space-Eaters" appeared in the July 1928 issue of Weird Tales. Eight months later, Weird Tales published Long's "The Hounds of Tindalos," a chilling and unforgettable story of drugs, time travel, and paranoia. Long added a new dimension (pun intended) to the odd and twisted geometry of Lovecraft's "The Call of Cthulhu." Forget the mundane threats of Dobermans, Pit Bulls, and Rottweilers. However, don't be deceived by the charm of poodles (with or without ribbons in their hair), Chihuahuas, and terriers. The Hounds of Tindalos is a pack I'd like to run with. Kind of a Hell's Angels for dogs.
