Maria Lectrix podcasts: The Dream Quest of Unknown Kadath by H.P. Lovecraft

Jesse Willis

SFFaudio Online Audio

I seem to easily fall for Catholic podcasters of the female persuasion. For evidence of this witness the recent addition of Julie D. (of the Forgotten Classics podcast) to the SFFaudio staff. More evidence comes in the form of my many missives about Maureen O’Brien (AKA Maria Lectrix). Maureen’s been podcasting SF, Fantasy, and Horror for even longer than Julie! The last project of hers that attracted my capricious ears was her unabridged reading of Despoilers Of The Golden Empire by Randall Garrett (read all about that awesome podcast audiobook HERE). But Maureen’s latest project will likely garner even more attention, if only for the name attached to it! Maureen writes:

“The Dream Quest of Unknown Kadath isn’t much like a typical Lovecraft story. It starts with a scene that’s pretty, not soul-shattering, eerie, or rugous and tentacular. But Lovecraftian elements (the Other Gods from Outside) are present, the main character is also the hero of other stories, the cats of Ulthar make their presence felt, and so forth. You get a lot of Dunsany-inspired writing (and sly side-remarks), too; but this isn’t a story that Dunsany really would have told. (Especially not the friendly and heroic cat parts).”

By H.P. Lovecraft; Read by Maureen O’Brien
Podcast – [UNABRIDGED]
Podcaster: Maria Lectrix
Podcast: May 2008 – ????
Randolph Carter dreams three times of a majestic sunset city, but each time he is abruptly snatched away before he can see it up close. When he prays to the gods of dream to reveal the whereabouts of the phantasmal city, they do not answer. Undaunted, Carter resolves to go to Kadath, where the gods live, to beseech them in person. However, no one has ever been to Kadath and none even knows how to get there. In dream, Randolph Carter descends “the seventy steps to the cavern of flame” and speaks of his plan to the priests Nasht and Kaman-Thah, whose temple borders the Dreamlands. The priests warn Carter of the great danger of his quest.

Part one is already in the podcast feed, no word on when it’ll wrap up, but you can keep apprised by subscribing to the podcast via this feed:

The Lurking Fear by H.P. LovecraftThe Lurking Fear
By H.P. Lovecraft; Read by B.J. Harrison
2 MP3s – Approx. 68 Minutes [UNABRIDGED]
Podcaster: The Classic Tales Podcast
Podcast: May 2008
The Lurking Fear. The Silent Death. Thunder calls it forth. It moves without detection. It kills without mercy. It terrorizes a mountainside. No one knows why, and no one knows exactly how, but when the heavens bellow their thunder, human lives are lost. Is it the ghost of an unavenged man? Is it a wolf beast, obeying the primal call of heaven? One diligent reporter finds out, and the knowledge drives him to delirium.

Audio Realms an update

SFFaudio News

Audio RealmsThough fairly quiet of late, Audio Realms has been busy recording some classic SF, Fantasy and Horror that we’ll be telling you a lot more about very soon. The ringleader there, Fred Godsmark, says he’ll be following up the recently released Andre Norton novel “Voodoo Planet” (details of which have just been added to our ANDRE NORTON author’s page) with an unabridged release of Norton’s The Time Traders!

Audio Realms recently won accolades for their 2007 release called Little Fuzzy. That’s H. Beam Piper’s best loved novel! The acclaim came from none other than Publisher’s Weekly magazine! Little Fuzzy won “Best Fantasy AudioBook for 2007!”

Currently available from this Audio Realms are classics like:

The Land That Time Forgot by Edgar Rice Burroughs
The People That Time Forgot by Edgar Rice Burroughs
Out of Time’s Abyss by Edgar Rice Burroughs

Further, a new “urban horror” imprint of Audio Realms saw the release of two sure fire hits:

Hide And Seek by Jack Ketchum and
The Traveling Vampire Show by Richard Laymon

And their popular Dark Worlds of H.P. Lovecraft series is up to Volume 6 now too! But it doesn’t all end there. The near future portends even more goodies:

The Rising by Brian Keene
The Door Through Space by Marion Zimmer Bradley
Things That Are Not There by C.J. Henderson
The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson
A Princess of Mars by Edgar Rice Burroughs
People Of The Dark by Robert E. Howard (this includes a Conan story, Queen Of The Black Coast)

And even a Weird Tales collection!

Fred’s going to be sending review copies of a lot of these. That will make some serious internecine fighting in the SFFaudio review clubhouse. Which reminds me, I need to add some more obsidian shards to the end of my club.
