It is chronological and begins with an ordinary man unknown to but a few, is followed quickly by a bona fide cryptozoology celebrity, and ends with a writer of whose art inspired many [...]

It looked worse than Frankenstein. It couldn’t have been human. Kathleen May. The smell was like oil on hot metal. You know, that greasy, sweet, slippery odor, slightly burnt and perhaps even appealing. But then more and more of it seemed to be saturating the molecules all around. It filled your nose.
