The Signalman is just a few years from retirement and fighting for every inch in that direction.

There are a ton of ideas and hints in this novella, enough to fuel my imagination long after I finished it. Much like half of the books I've read so far in 2017, Agents of Dreamland is a modern Lovecraft tale of sorts, a tale of madness, alien fungus, shady government dealings, and an apocalypse on the horizon.

It sounded wonderfully bizarre and it was.

But what do those events have to do with the New Horizons space probe and a black and white movie penned by Edgar Rice Burroughs.ĭespite my resolve to take on as few ARCs as possible this year, I couldn't resist this one when it popped up on Netgalley. A government agent called The Signalman has a meeting with a mysterious woman in Winslow, Arizona about a bizarre cult murder near the Salton Sea days earlier.
