OPUS: #011

“From under the polar ice a horror out of long-dead ages is loosed upon the world to spread terror and destruction”–TOC
“The red ray flashed after him, and in moment he, too, lay a distorted thing of cloth and flesh upon the ground.”
「北極点に近い島で太古の遺跡が発見されるという冒頭は、ラヴクラフトの『狂気の山脈にて』の北極版を予想させるが、さすがはハミルトンで、発掘のあとには謎の飛行物質があらわれて、地球の文明があっけなく破壊される描写がつづく。人類誕生よりもまえに地球を支配していた蟇じみた種族が、極寒に耐えきれず仮死の状態を保っていたところ、発掘により温暖化装置が始動して仮死状態から目覚め、ふたたび地球の支配に乗り出したののである。この装置のスイッチを切ることで、蟇じみた種族は絶滅させられる」 — 大瀧啓裕編 『ウィアード』 4 (青心社, 1990) p. 333
