Sorry to post again, so soon. There is also a book called "The Philosphers Stone", which I highly recommend. It was by a follower of H.P. Lovecraft. August Derleth or Colin Wilson. It was Colin. It talks about the "old ones", a primeval and chaotic supernatural race before humans arrived, and the mysteries that formed mankind and lurk in the shadows...A good read. Not related directly to RPG games but at least 2 movies have been made from this HPL mythos. It would make a good RPG story! And one was created recently, I forget its name, Cthulu? It was more of an adventure game, I think.
