Ghouls of the Miskatonic (the first book) was set mostly in Arkham, and in its sequel the focus transitions to Kingsport. At the same time, the plot pulls ever closer to the events described in "The Call of Cthulhu," with Brown University professor George Gammell Angell becoming part of the team of investigators. The integration of various Dreamlands concepts is done in a way that meshes fairly artfully with the Cthulhu-oriented main plot, and there are still a couple of conspicuous episodes (including the final climax) of gory horror. There's also some further exploitation of the "Arkham Horror" game characters, with author Gloria Goldberg receiving a conspicuous introduction.
At the end of this book there is a plot twist that I had been expecting since fairly early in the preceding volume, so it certainly didn't come as a surprise. I'm not sure how McNeill was to have done a better job setting it up, but the whole thing was pretty transparent to me.
As with the first book, the cover art is very attractive and fitting. Game publisher Fantasy Flight does fine presentation, especially when it comes to Yog-Sothothery.
