"The King in Yellow, a series of vaguely connected short stories having as a background a monstrous and suppressed book whose perusal brings fright, madness, and spectral tragedy, really achieves notable heights of cosmic fear in spite of uneven interest and a somewhat trivial and affected cultivation of the Gallic studio atmosphere made popular by Du Maurier's Trilby. The most powerful of its tales, perhaps, is The Yellow Sign, in which is introduced a silent and terrible churchyard watchman with a face like a puffy grave-worm's." - from the Introduction by H.P. Lovecraft.

评分补标:失去了真探里那种若隐若现的阴森与不可名状的克苏鲁气质,后面几乎真的是言情了嘛…
评分不寒而栗,脊背发凉
评分本来是想看了本书以增进自己对于True Detective的理解,看了之后才觉得True Detective的编剧绝对是才华横溢才能从这样一本不知所云的书中获得灵感,编出真探这样的神剧。
评分who is the yellow king? Has little things to do with True Detective actually.
