T. Joshi - 24" X 36" promotional poster - Newly commissioned art by Karmazid - Arthur Machen's novella, The Great God Pan, written in the waning years of the 19th century, combines the science fiction trope of man meddling in affairs beyond which he ought (as introduced in Mary Shelley's Frankenstein half a century prior) and the pagan mysteries of nature, as explored by Machen himself in "The White People" around the same time. - When science meddles in the world of natural law in stories such as these, the results are invariably horrific and bring ruin upon all who engage with it. However, it is the long tail of destruction wrought by Dr. Raymond's opening experiment upon the young woman, Mary, which resulted in the veil being lifted from her sight and allowing her to see the Great God Pan. As these intersecting stories are related, Harvey's ability to switch effortlessly between straightforward, logical delivery of men of means and science and those who believe in the mystery being explored allows him to properly imbue the material with its emotional heft.
