At the Mountains of Madness is a cornerstone of Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos, blending elements of horror, science fiction, and exploration. It follows the account of Dr. William Dyer, a geologist and professor at Miskatonic University, who leads an Antarctic expedition that uncovers terrifying and ancient secrets buried beneath the ice. As the expedition progresses, the team discovers the ruins of a pre-human civilization and encounters horrifying, otherworldly creatures. These revelations challenge the very understanding of human history and the nature of the cosmos.
