The Carl Sanford Omnibus

By Tim Pratt

Renowned magus Carl Sanford uses his wits to outmaneuver cosmic horrors and achieve vast power in this omnibus collecting three novels set in the world of Arkham Horror.

Occultist and powerful leader of the Silver Twilight Lodge, Carl Sanford has always been two steps ahead of his enemies until he finally meets his inhuman, eldritch match. Master of Twilight charts Sanford’s rise, fall, and ultimate resurrection to reclaim his power, collecting the novels The Ravening Deep, Herald of Ruin, The Twilight Magus, and the short story series Silver and the Stars.

Arkham Horror

Arkham Horror

It is the height of the Roaring Twenties – a fresh enthusiasm for the arts, science, and exploration of the past have opened doors to a wider world, and beyond… And yet, a dark shadow grows in the city of Arkham. Alien entities known as Ancient Ones lurk in the emptiness beyond space and time, writhing at the thresholds between worlds. Eldritch rituals must be stopped and alien creatures destroyed; before the Ancient Ones make our world their ruined dominion. Only a handful of investigators stand against the horrors threatening to tear this world apart. Will they prevail?
