London 1925: after a grisly discovery in a ladies' rooming house, ex-boxer Harry Stubbs finds himself on a mission that takes him from the lowest dives to high society, searching for occult mysteries buried in the Horniman Musem, wrestling with enigmas - and bare-knuckle battling with deadly opponents. An insidious alien is at large, the time to stop it is running out - and that may not even be the worst of Harry's problems.

Another rousing Harry Stubbs yarn
Revisado: 11-02-17
In this third tale of Harry Stubbs, our self effacing but pugnacious hero faces another Mythos entity, this one is a take on The Colour out of Space.
David Hambling merges plausible science, real life occultism and the fictional world of HPL, and brings them all together in this story.
The expansion of Harry Stubbs world and the evolution of the character are also very welcome.
If you liked the other installments of Hamblings tales, you'll love this one.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 82
In this novella set in 1924 London, ex-boxer Harry Stubbs is on the trail of a mysterious legacy. A polar explorer has died, leaving huge debts and hints of a priceless find. His informants seem to be talking in riddles, and Harry soon finds he isn't the only one on the trail - and what he's looking for is as lethal as it is valuable. The key to the enigma lies in an ancient Arabian book and it leads to something stranger and more horrifying than Harry could ever imagine.

Cracking Mythos Tale
Revisado: 10-06-16
What made the experience of listening to The Elder Ice: A Harry Stubbs Adventure the most enjoyable?
A well written tale with believable characters and evident research on the historicla and scientific topics touched upon in the story.
What did you like best about this story?
There were enough twists in this short tale to keep it interesting. The mythos was present, but not overused. key to a good mythos tale.
What three words best describe Brian J. Gill’s performance?
The accent of the reader jars with a native of the British Isles on the pronunciation of some words, and the Welsh and Irish accents erred on the side of comically stereotypicla, but was otherwise well done.
Any additional comments?
