While Father Sean O'Malley is summoned to Rome to discuss the "Longborough Affair" with his superiors, Russian anthropologist Anna Rykov and Doctor Harold Lamb travel to New York City where they encounter merchants, mobsters, and madmen in pursuit of the spirit medium who advised their mentor shortly before the start of the whole adventure.

The Missing Medium is a pulp adventure set in the 1920s, and the second book in the Utgarda series.

For fans of Lovecraft, weird tales or the role playing game Call of Cthulhu. The narrator handles the story well and provides accents for many of the characters. More action than atmosphere - with some fun plot twists.

Adventure a la Lovecraft

“The Missing Medium” is as riveting as the furst book. From the cover page to the very last, readers are transported from a quaint college town to the bustling streets of New York.  Ending where the first book left off, Anna Rykov, Dr. Harry Lamb, and Father Sean O’Malley are left wondering the why behind being chosen by Mr. Longborough on his death bed for carrying out his final wish.  A visit to Brian Teplow, a famous medium in New York, sparked the downward spiral of Longborough’s health.  Now missing, Anna and Dr. Lamb set off to New York to find answers, and Brian Teplow. 

Book two of the Utgarda trilogy centered deeply on Anna and Harry as they scour New York for the missing medium that Longborough sought out before death. With Father O’Malley off in Rome, Anna and Harry needed to escape the leering questions and spotlight thrust upon them in their small college town.  Taking to the streets they are immediately introduced to several new characters in their quest.  Anna’s curious and inquisitive nature is the perfect complement to Harry’s unbelieving and untrusting temperament.  So, when they come across a seemingly homeless man, going by the name of Ganon in the subway, Anna immediately takes to his story and complementary picture portraying the group, despite Harry’s protests. 

Author Joab Stieglitz does a great job pivoting this book after the success and intrigue of book one. Introducing readers to a new, diverse cast, and scenery while leaning on those we’ve come to know and trust from book one.  Using the characters to weave the story and connect us to the worlds within.  Ganon lends well to carrying the storyteller role of the group, hiding amongst the shadows with his supporting role in Anna and Harry’s journey, as Stieglitz buries us deeper into the heart of Utgarda and the barrier between dimensions. 

Readers will immediately be wrapped in the tentacles of “The Missing Medium” as Stieglitz continues our Utgarda trajectory.  Ending in an epic fashion, full of action, beasts, and Utgarda breaching this world.  “The Missing Medium” offers a fantastic conclusion, leaving readers anxious for the third in this trilogy.
