I absolutely adore The Dream Cycle, and even just as equally, the HorrorBabble readings of them. I love the fantastic and obscenely lavish worlds that Lovecraft has created, and Ian's readings fit perfectly.

This is one of my favorite Lovecraft stories. Highly underrated, in my opinion!! Thank You for narrating it! It was STELLAR!!! 🙌🌊

Ocean is more ancient than the mountains, and freighted with the Memories and the Dreams of Time.

A blue bird that mocks people? Did Lovecraft predict Twitter?

This was great.I've always liked the Dreamlands gives you a lot of space to sleepwalk.Great Job.

thank you for the link

I'm 42, but remember reading The Dream Quest of Unknown Kadath at 10 when I found it in the school library. I was like wtf? It was my second book by Lovecraft, the first being The Case Of Charles Dexter Ward. I'd thought that I'd read all of his works now multiple times, but I've never read or listened to this one. At least not that I remember. Thanks for the telling, Ian, your narration is excellent and precise. Are you a fan of Lumely?

Yes sir. I haven't really kept track of his later works, but the Necroscope series was worth the read. The Titus Crow stories are pretty good, dealing as they do with the Lovecraft mythos. Just curious, wondering if you were a fan. Happy Memorial Day, Mr. Gordon! Lest We Forget.

I haven't read any of his work actually - perhaps I'll take a look. Same to you (belated), sir! Ian

You should listen to the 1990s metal treasure In The Maze of Kadath by Catacomb. The metal tributes to H.P.L.'s work is plentiful.

Another of my favorite stories. Thanks again Ian

Hauntingly beautiful delivery!

A simple and beautiful story. Has quite a classical feel to it. Great narration as always Ian.

Kudos on another great Lovecraftian video. Am on Day 2 of my Lovecraft binge and am now engulfed in his stories.

Great diversion as always Ian !!

You ,sir, are an extraordinary narrater!

Beautiful, and so sad ...

Velaria, the City of a Thousand Wonders -- I had no idea that this name originated from H.P.

Yaaaay who dosnt love a good ghost ship story

Amazing.

Reminds me of the voyage of the dawn treader

I know its supposed to be a surreal boat voyage but I can see this story easily being adapted for a SPACE adventure type movie or something.

I wonder if this story influenced the song Crystal Ship.

What is the music in the background of this one? I feel it was a poor pairing for this exceptional reading

It's a soundscape produced with a specific patch intended to simulate an 'alien' ocean. Sorry it didn't work for you. Ian

White On! 😎

Was Lovecraft smoking opium? I am sure I should know this but at the moment senility has got the better of Me! (These senior moments are becoming more frequent so I have been using one of the brain training apps...but I still can't remember this Lol!)

Why the man would use the word gay in such a great story I'll never understand, nonetheless he's one of the most intriguing authors to this day, even though he passed away a long time ago.

Until the 1970s, the word "gay" meant happy, joyful.
