The Temple Kindle Edition

4.1 out of 5 stars 50 ratings

A German U-boat embarks on a horrifying journey after one of its crew claims a strange souvenir in this tale by the author of “The Call of Cthulhu”.

During World War I, a German U-boat sinks a British freighter. Karl Heinrich, Graf von Altberg-Ehrenstein, a lieutenant-commander in the Imperial German Navy, orders the ship to fire on the British survivors and their lifeboats before submerging.

After the U-boat surfaces again, a dead sailor is found clinging to the deck with a mysterious ivory talisman in his pocket. Heinrich’s second-in-command pockets the charm just before the body is thrown overboard. And thus begins the ship’s journey into madness . . .

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

H. P. Lovecraft was born in 1890 in Providence, Rhode Island, where he lived most of his life. He wrote many essays and poems early in his career, but gradually focused on the writing of horror stories, after the advent in 1923 of the pulp magazine Weird Tales, to which he contributed most of his fiction. His relatively small corpus of fiction--three short novels and about sixty short stories--has nevertheless exercised a wide influence on subsequent work in the field, and he is regarded as the leading twentieth-century American author of supernatural fiction. H. P. Lovecraft died in Providence in 1937.

    52 pages long. What there is, is good story.
    The review will fit the story. The end! Oh they will not unless I add in filler.

    Instead of Antarctica, these characters find her under the sea when their U2 sub goes down. Thanks to a strange amulet, stranger things happen to the crew.

    Not one of his better outings.
  • Reviewed in the United States on October 30, 2013
    Lovecraft is good with this story. It's not like Call of Cthullu or Mountains of Madness but it's good in the Lovecraftian way.
