Description
Beyond our world lies another, one full of paranormal forces and eldritch horrors, and once that membrane has been pierced, life can never be the same again. In every corner of the globe, persons unknown are seizing objects of extreme supernatural power. They declare themselves defenders of humanity, fighting off the darkness which presses against the veil shrouding our reality from the unknowable. But do their claims of altruism ring true? And should they be permitted to wield such power? From the world of Arkham Horror comes an exciting new anthology that delves into new mysteries.

Every single Arkham Horror title is a hit for me including this one. What I really loved about this, was it is a collection of short stories. Each one pulls you into that Lovecraft, gothic, and cosmic horror atmosphere. Even if you don’t know anything about Arkham Horror, this will be a great read. I can’t wait to have all of the new Arkham horror physical copies.

We arent in Arkham anymore.
Secrets in Scarlet was edited by Charlotte Llewelyn-Wells and is a collection of stories based in Arkham Horror LCGs upcoming expansion featuring stories from familiar faces such as Josh Reynolds and David Annandale, as well as many newcomers.
A secret organization seeks to control keys that will allow them to control a dark power, but they arent the only ones searching for them, and they may not even be the good guys. Secrets in Scarlet draws elements from pulp horror, Raymond Chandler detective stories, and grand heists to create stories that would fit perfectly being listened to from a 1920s radio drama.
Each of these stories does a great job of feeling fresh and unique to each other story in the collection and combines Lovecraft, Indiana Jones, and Oceans 11 to create a globetrotting adventure with diverse locations and an equally diverse cast.
