Review: My first time reading Lovecraft, and absolutely loved the ride - Apparently this anthology is actually missing four stories that appear in other collections, but I'll get to those another time. For all intents and purposes, this book sent me on a full and fascinating voyage through Lovecraft's fiction. Prior to beginning the collection, I had never read a single Lovecraft story, yet I had long been meaning to. I was of course aware of arguably his most famous creation, Cthulhu, the god-like “Old One” with its iconic tentacled head, slumbering through the aeons below the Pacific. What had really got me interested, however, was a synopsis I’d read of the story The Shadow Out of Time, which awakened me to the true wonders of Lovecraft’s imagination–it occurred to me that this horror tale had a pronounced sci-fi element to it, which I hadn’t expected. I wondered at how no story I could think of from this master had every found its way into my hands. What I was most surprised and delighted by was the unexpected variety across his works. A sense of cosmic horror forms the underpinning of his writing, spanning a veritable pantheon of monstrous creatures, extra-cosmic beings, gods, and virtually indescribable lifeforms and other fiends (indeed, unnameable and supposedly indescribable horrors are a common features in these tales)–from the crawling chaos Nyarlathotep, to Cthulhu and his ilk, to alien interlopers, to the Earth Gods of a sprawling Dreamland, to the terrifying Other Gods, and beyond. I loved the lore he created, added to piece by piece across multiple stories, stretching back through a vague history of the earth and its many (non-human) civilizations that have dwelt upon it since primordial times, their ruins now buried beneath the earth and sea in the deep and remote places of the world. Referenced in tale after tale, the widely-suppressed and deathly taboo Necronomicon, a fictional ancient book composed by the “Mad Arab” Abdul Alhazred, is a great element to draw the reader into a literary universe teeming with forbidden elder knowledge. Then there are the stories of his Dream Cycle, taking place in Earth’s Dreamland, explored most extensively in the wonder-filled novella The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath. The journeys through dreamland, often undertaken by characters escaping a dreary Earthly existence into a wondrous and adventure-rich non-corporeal world, are described beautifully. Lovecraft was able to create a sense of cosmic dread–fear for the very experience of the human mind and soul in the face of truths and realities so extreme in their alien-ness and horror that they drive it to utter madness, in addition to mortal terror–but he could also capture through prose a rare and fleeting sensation such as we get in those dreams, often as children, in which we find ourselves for a time in unknown worlds of limitless beauty, mystery and joy. Lovecraft not only takes his readers through the hidden (often subterranean) recesses of fictionalized New England locales, but as far as the unexplored wastes of Antarctica (At the Mountains of Madness - one of my favorites), to Australia (The Shadow Out of Time), to the Congo, to various corners of Europe, to the depths of the ocean, to vast cities that rose on Earth before the evolution of human beings, to the edges of the cosmos and beyond, and to the furthest reaches of Earth’s Dreamland. Almost as a bonus, the third-to-last story, Sweet Ermengarde, which was written under the pseudonym Percy Simple, was a humorous and lighthearted tale, theatrical in nature, and without any supernatural gloom whatsoever. All in all, an awesome tour-de-force through the Lovecraft's body of literature.
Review: Good quality! - Nice sleek cover, small print which the recipient will like, and a convenient list of contents on the back.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My first time reading Lovecraft, and absolutely loved the ride
*by Z***D on December 23, 2021*

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Interesting audio editing
*by J***R on November 8, 2025*

I bought the audio book version, and overall it's good. I like the narrator, I was surprised that it is over 50 hours long, was definitely a good buy. My only complaint is that the editing is strange, the audio was obviously pieced together from multiple takes, the narration changes tone, volume and style sometimes mid sentence. It is a bit jarring and annoying at times. I understand someone can't read out loud for 50+ hours non stop, I just wish that the sound editor had paid attention to what they were piecing together. I understand that this is somewhat of a pet peeve and won't effect most people, but I felt that I should warn others like myself. Still, overall, well worth the purchase and even if it is jarring to have someone dramatically narrating half a sentence and then suddenly whispering in your ear the other half, I'm still happy with the purchase.
