Over time, the shoggoths evolved to develop independent minds, and rebelled

I loved it for its macabre vision but do be warned it’s quite dark (although is that obvious?) There was a brief literary trend towards cannibalism as a theme and this was one of the books held up as a part of that, although it was way ahead of the curve with initial publication in Spanish in 2017
