Publisher's summary

Based on the Mythos of H.P. Lovecraft, Black Hole Constellation tells the tale of two brothers and their horrific discovery in the Cosmos. One brother is a man of science, an astronomer working at the Miskatonic University Observatory. The other brother is an astrologer, a fanciful historian on star-inspired mysticism. When a newly-invented telescope reveals the locations of several black holes, they soon learn the secret of these hungry giants. They are not holes at all; they are Gates.

*This story originallly appeared in Tainted Steel: Tales of the Weird and Woeful.*

Black Hole Constellation

This was a very short and very interesting little tale. It fits into the madness of the HPL mythos from a bit of an outside perspective. It was fun and well-performed by Danny Montooth. It was so short that I listened to it again to make sure I didn't miss anything. Kinda made me want to get a telescope and find a quiet field to look at the stars.

Great, short fun

A successful narration of a story very much in a Lovecraftian vein. Short, but erudite and with the right edge of believability that makes playing the game of Lovecraftian horror fun and intriguing. I look forward to listening to / reading more of Hollingsworth.

As Above so Below

I liked this story. Took me a few listens but at 17 minutes that isn't hard to do. Seemed more science fiction than horror but I liked the quick spiral into madness based on learning something that few know. Not a HP Lovecraft fan but I did enjoy this. Montooth does a great job with his narration.

A lovecraftian tale of celestial horrors

Fans of H.P. Lovecraft will be very satisfied with this short tale. Mankind’s minds are not meant to behold the mysteries of the universe. There are things that lurk In the dark corners of the universe that will drive men mad. One of these things can be beheld one the constellations of Black holes.

Not for me, maybe for you

It was only 17 minutes and it was a struggle to get through it. I think part of it was the narrator and that I found the story boring.
