On the old, massive, half-completed space station Crescent something forgotten is stirring again. This in spite of the influence of the community's ancient crone and the ruthless efforts of it's corrupt mayor.
It's a story old as time: A thing or things want to exist which would better not. Toward this end locations, people and events are being manipulated into the horrific arcane conjunctions necessary to hasten it's arrival.
It could be argued that the story is unevenly paced, plodding over some events while sweeping right past others. Or that it dwells too heavily on scenes of carnage and sexual depravity in an attempt to set the tone of seediness and horror. But in spite of these flaws I found Crescent to be an interesting take on the idea of a Lovecraftian "Great Old One" style incursion in a non-standard setting.
Warning: Heavy adult content.
Here's a direct link to the first episode.
The rest of the series can be found at Podiobooks.com or at the official Crescent Station website.
