I noticed something about Amazon today. I went to check when my order would be delivered, and I saw this:
 |
| Not the Squirrel Girl book I pre-ordered four months ago. |
It's the "2 other shipments in this order" part in the lower left. I have though already, Amazon, and I've already read the book entirely. It's not just this one order that isn't complete yet due to the pre-order.
 |
| This already arrived, so it's not "Arriving today." |
 |
| Ditto with this one. |
What's up, Amazon?
TldrL:
- Title: The Colour out of Space
- Date: 1927
- Summary: A meteorite falls onto a farmer's farm, and dissolves after being struck by lightning multiple times. The farm becomes corrupted, with all the produce growing huge and bitter. It kills his animals too, making them crumble to dust before they die. It's really bad, is the point here. Eventually the farmer and his family die too, in equally bad fashion, but not before a neighbor visits and is told about the "colour" that lives in the well that's feeding on them. The neighbor brings the authorities, who plan their trip great so they arrive at sunset. They escape the colour, which shoots off into space, dropping a small part of itself back down. The valley is about to become a reservoir for Arkham, which is A Great Idea.
- Real Villain: Colors.
- Last line in italics? No.
- Writer writes instead of fleeing? No.
- Rating: 8/10.
- Read it: Here.
