LiteratureThe Return of the Sorcerer
The Return of the Sorcerer follows an unemployed translator hired by John Carnby, an occult scholar whose need for linguistic help conceals an immediate personal danger. An Arabic passage of the Necronomicon describes what a murdered sorcerer can do with his remains. The household’s unexplained sounds gradually turn that apparently remote text into a precise explanation of events already under way.
