Does Lovecraftian erotica have a progressive bias? It might when the eldritch cults are contrasted with sexually repressive Christianity. These and other considerations in a review of "Uhluhtc's Sacrifice" (2013) by Grave Vilmont on Deep Cuts in a Lovecraftian Vein

Only two days left until The Final Awakening breaks loose.
This isn’t the kind of trilogy that ties itself up neatly. It bites. It lingers. It whispers things you shouldn’t understand—but do.
And it’s almost here.

Something’s stirring in the dark.
Ethereal Nightmares: The Final Awakening is almost here—the last chapter in a trilogy where the rules of reality were optional and the nightmares were personal.
The end isn’t coming quietly. It's clawing its way in.
