'''Strange Eons''' is a novel by Creator/RobertBloch. It consists largely of references to Lovecraft novels and short stories, which it neither expands on nor explains very much (for example, we are still left wondering what those odd things were that killed Harley Warren, and Bloch -- rather than telling us -- has one of his characters die in a similar fashion and doesn't explain that).
