I asked a version of this question in the general horror thread, but are there any non-short story cosmic horror novels or series? I read the first laundry files book and didn’t like the humor / office politics and bureaucracy stuff. I want to read a multi book epic about elder gods trying to eat the world. Am I gonna have to write it myself?

Secret Machine posted:Agents of Dreamland by Caitlin Kiernan is a multi book series. I only read the first book which is short but if left me wanting to read the others. thanks! I'll check this out Relevant Tangent posted:The Laundry books rapidly get away from fun office politics with a smattering of eldritch horror and towards the breakdown of reality. Thanks! I've heard they get better and I will attempt to keep going. RagingTux posted:Probably not the first thing to come to mind as "cosmic horror", but the Three Body Problem books by Cixin Liu have plenty of world imperilment by misanthropic forces, and certainly tick the "multi-book epic" box! the only time I've been more disappointed by a novel I'd been hyped to read than TBP was Annihilation. I love Liu's short stories, but TBP just fell flat.

Helical Nightmares posted:I know this is a tangent, but I picked up The Three Body problem recently and I'm curious to know which of Liu's short stories you think are really good. I enjoyed the "wandering earth" collection - in particular the title story and whichever one was about the world made of sand
