\"Brian<\/a>
\n Brian Lumley’s Mythos Omnibus: “Burrowers Beneath”, “Transition of Titus Crow”, “Clock of Dreams” Vol 1<\/a> by Brian Lumley<\/a>
\n My rating: 2 of 5 stars<\/a><\/p>\n

I liked The Burrowers Beneath<\/i> (I’d give that 3 or 4 stars), but was disappointed with The Transition of Titus Crow<\/i>. Maybe Lumley lost me somewhere (or maybe he got lost himself). All I know is suddenly I was reading science fiction and fantasy instead of horror (not that I don’t like sci-fi and fantasy, but I was expecting the book to lean towards more horror). While reading The Transition of Titus Crow<\/i>, I kept waiting for the story to turn back to the CCD – it did so only vaguely. The elements of The Burrowers Beneath<\/i> that I liked was the distinct Holmesian mood of it and was looking forward to more of that. Sadly, I was disappointed.<\/p>\n

Suffice it to say, I didn’t read The Clock of Dreams<\/i>. Though, maybe curiosity will bring me back to this series at a later date.<\/p>\n
