About This Novel
In 1881, the glory of the Victorian era was at its peak. Under the gaslights of London, evil and opportunity grew together in the thick fog. Arthur Collins is a destitute former student who was expelled from Oxford University. His only wealth is his sick sister and a head full of literary memories from the 21st century. In order to survive, he had no choice but to become a "fire thief" - stealing the sparks of ideas for the next hundred years to light up the ignorant sky of this empire where the sun never sets. In the name of "Discoverer", he brought Edgar Allan Poe's dark poetry to England; He became a "pioneer" and made Sherlock Holmes's deerstalker hat and pipe a symbol of reason; He established "Arkham House" and recruited the legacy of Lord Dunsany, M. R. James and others to build his own literary empire. He put on the mask of a "prophet" and used "The Time Machine" and "War of the Worlds" to depict a future picture that made the entire era tremble; In the end, he became the "creator of myth", injecting the whispers of Cthulhu into the collective nightmare of human civilization. He was a guest of Scotland Yard, the spiritual mentor of the Golden Dawn, the ideological rival of the Fabian Society, and the only "godfather" in the eyes of countless talented writers. Some people call him a literary giant who created an era, some people regard him as a prophet who has insight into the future, and even more people fearfully call him an evil god who spreads madness. And it all started in an unheated attic and a brother's humble desire to give his sister a full meal. This is a legend about using words to fight fate and using thoughts to reshape the world.

Not bad, not bad
I haven't read it in a long time since I added it to my bookshelf. I recently got sick of playing the game, so I decided to pick it up and read it. Unexpectedly, it was pretty good. This is an excellent manuscript. Then let me give you a recommendation. Finally, I have enough time to read other books, so I will post a recommendation together.
