About this audiobook
This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.
August 1917. A German U-boat commander sinks a British freighter in the Atlantic and takes from a dead sailor’s pocket a small carved ivory head of extraordinary antiquity. From that moment the voyage begins to go wrong.
The crew hear things against the hull. Men go mad and throw themselves into the sea. The engines fail, the compass is useless, and the boat drifts helplessly southward along the ocean floor. At last the searchlight falls on a sunken city of titanic stone, and on a great temple cut into the rock, where something still burns behind the doorway.
Written in 1920, The Temple is one of H.P. Lovecraft’s classic tales of cosmic horror: a slow descent told in the clipped, arrogant voice of a man who insists to the very end that he is perfectly sane. It is an early vision of the drowned Atlantean worlds that would later give us R’lyeh.
Listen to the complete, unabridged audiobook of this classic weird tale by the creator of the Cthulhu Mythos.
