Though most of Lovecraft's worst stories seem to reside in this collection, it also sports the enjoyable dream cycle tales. (  ) kernunrex | May 1, 2009 |  1965 edition in the original dust jacket with a creepy picture of Dagon on the cover. Inside this book are pretty much all of HPL's original stories, even the Beast in the Cave, which I think was his earliest piece. It is nice in that you can start this book, get through a few stories, put the book down, come back, read a few more, and take it at your leisure until you've finished. If you want to see what the hoopla is about HP Lovecraft, you would be well advised to start with this one. Other writers have imitated HPL, but they've done so based mainly on this collection of works. A great book and a fine intro to HP Lovecraft.

Crawling, clawing, sliming horror, seeping from the night-tipped pen of that Grand Master of heart-stopping supernatural terror - H.P. LOVECRAFT
Sample a dark universe peopled with gods best forgotten and strange races best left undiscovered. Shudder in the dank breath of an ages- old evil blowing icily from the dusk-shrouded eons of a time before history. Savour, in this classic collection of masterpieces of the weird and eerie, the grave-fresh tang of total fear. Here is horror to set your skin trawling from your spine's base to your scalp-and back again
