A little daunted by the prolific proclivities of Lovecraft, I decided to cherry pick. General consensus pointed out the following five tales as being the cream of the crop:1. The Dragon2. The Outsider3. The Lurking Fear4. The call of Cthulu5. The Colour of outerspaceAnd, from my GR friend Bennet I picked up on ‘The thing on the doorstep’ which otherwise gets few mentions but turned out to be my favourite of the bunch. Then I stopped, because GR Chris told me too. And, because Lovecraft simply ca...
I'll spoil my impressions of this book with two phrases, which will surely make some Lovecraft fans really angry:1. Lovecraft loved to write, but not tell stories.2. Lovecraft got paid by the word, and he really liked the money.But before you come with pitchforks and torches to get me, let me explain the whole affair.First off, the first story of the book is "At the Mountains of Madness" (because all stories are in their alphabetical order) and it really rubbed me in the wrong way: It does a goo...

It begins in 1917 with “The Tomb” and ends in 1935 with his last original work “The Haunter of the Dark.” The book is ordered chronologically by the date the story was written. Because Lovecraft was a terrible businessman and left no heirs to his intellectual
Review updated on May 17, 2017... yet again.As the title says this is complete work from the classic of horror genre. It is difficult to review a book with 62 different stories in it as they are quite diverse. The general idea in the majority of the stories is the forbidden knowledge. Some of the things are not meant to be known to the mankind, and meddling with them will lead to madness in the best case, or unleashing a great evil in the worst. Having said that, I need to mention that H.P.Lovec...
