I have to admit that I never heard of this story before so this adaptation was my first-read of it.

Entire story is told through dreams. Our intrepid hero tries to find the unknown magnificent city and in order to find it he tries to contact mysterious and dangerous creatures who are keepers of the distant frontiers.

Story itself aged well and even today resonates very well. While watching our protagonist discussing the events with his friend about their quests and adventures one can draw parallels with the modern day computer game players, people finding more sense and enjoyment in distant worlds where they become whomever they want and do whatever they want. They might not dream in the true sense of the word but they are definitely living in their own worlds. If you ask me this story is cyberpunk to the core, only element missing are techno-gadgets.

Art is great and truly manages to depict the otherworldliness of dreams and dream-like experiences.

Truly great adaptation. It begs the question do we dream of things or is our very existence (and our dreams) just echo of another dreamer. So Inception-like...

Highly recommended.

This must be best story about body snatching I ever read.

When professor collapses during the class in Arkham's Miskatonic University he is placed under close monitoring and care. Five years later he awakens totally oblivious of time passed. As he recuperates strange memories of times past and future start to flash in his mind and he starts the search for mysterious locations haunting his mind.

Entire concept is truly great. Wont go into details here because it would be major spoiler but artist truly managed to bring the strange events from Lovecraft's novels to life.

Highly recommended to all fans of horror and especially Lovecraft.

I didn't expect to love this book, but even so, I found it singularly disappointing.

My experience is partly the result of poor jacket copy - I quickly figured out that Celeste is a trippy dream sequence with pretty art, not a speculative comic about the disappearance of humankind. However, I'd argue this was a structural failing as well. The art is the only success here; I found the three parallel narratives shallow and disappointing.

For every letter is a complete
world. Thus when you say the word with great hitkashrut,
surely you bestir those supernal worlds and thereby achieve
great effects.
