The fisherman - A Novel by John Langan

Description

Winner of the 2016 Bram Stoker Award for Best Novel, The Fisherman is a sprawling, atmospheric work of cosmic horror that explores the devastating weight of loss. Set in the Hudson Valley, it follows two widowers who seek solace in fishing, only to be drawn into a dark, century-old legend involving the construction of the Ashokan Reservoir and a mysterious figure known as 'Der Fischer.' Langan utilizes a nested narrative structure to weave a tale of ancient sorcery, eldritch monsters, and the dangerous lengths men will go to for a chance to reclaim what they have lost."
