Cthulhu's Children

Raised by Humans
Meet Michael Meridian, a child unlike any other-brilliant, curious, and not entirely human. Found as an infant with alien features, Michael grows under the care of Amy and Joe, who do everything in their power to shield him from the world while nurturing his extraordinary abilities. From dominating chess matches to conversing telepathically with sea creatures, Michael's rapid development captivates and terrifies those around him. But as he matures, questions about his origins and the return of the Old Ones grow impossible to ignore. Cthulhu's Children is a suspenseful, heartwarming tale of a family grappling with love, humanity, and cosmic destiny.

The Awakening of Ancient Powers
In Cthulhu's Children, J. E. Murphy delivers an exhilarating fusion of Lovecraftian lore and contemporary storytelling. The Meridian family's seemingly idyllic life unravels when their home, nestled near eerie, silent woods, becomes a portal to unspeakable mysteries. As they unwittingly adopt a creature of the Old Ones, they find themselves grappling with cosmic horrors, parental instincts, and a world teetering on the edge of chaos. Will love and humanity prevail against forces beyond comprehension? Perfect for fans of supernatural thrillers and dark family dramas, this tale bridges the gap between eldritch horror and heartfelt storytelling.

An ancient creature has awakened in the depths of the ocean and has decided to return humanity to the old ways of blood sacrifice and abject servitude, eliminating all those who are not compliant. To help him with this endeavor the creature spawns seven children who will be his high priests and administrators on Earth. However, children seldom turn out the way their parents want them.
