    First time posting here so I hope I’m doing this right…

    I recently finished reading the first couple books in Charles Stross’s ‘The Laundry Files’ series and I love the concept of every day people secretly working to keep Lovecraftian horrors at bay, but Stross’s books are set in a more modern day with heavy technology themes.

    Are there are similar style books set in Victorian or Edwardian eras? Or that are still contemporary but include low level magic (similar to the Dresden Files)?

    1. The Nathaniel Cade series by Christopher Farnsworth.
      4 books: Blood Oath – The President’s Vampire – Red, White & Blood – Deep State

      A vampire (Nathaniel Cade) is captured and tortured, then sworn & forced to serve the presidency due to an ancient blood oath. His job is to defend the country from paranormal threats & supernatural creations (unbeknownst to the general public), all while having to adjust to working with his new rookie partner/handler; Zach Barrows. Zach is now exposed to a world of secrets & sights not many ever will see. It’s hidden politics meets paranormal doom, and everyone is in danger, especially the President!

    2. James Lovegrove has written a series of novels called the Cthulhu Casebooks, which involve Sherlock Holmes fighting Lovecraftian horrors.
