    Episode 8 - Annihilation by Jeff VanderMeer

    In this episode The Devil's Librarians get to grips with the beautiful, enigmatic horror of Jeff VanderMeer's novel Annihilation. Please note! Leraje made a mistake with a reference - when he mentions The Dunwich Horror he means The Shadow Over Innsmouth.
