Highlights
Quality
A professional and well thought out product.
I'm fairly new to lovecraft's works and i'm quite pleased to add this one to my collection.
Imprisoned with the pharoahs]; pickman's model; the case of charles dexter ward [novella]; the dunwich horror; at the mountains... Read More
If i ordered this i definitely would not want the first edition i had, as it was of very poor quality.
Competitiveness
With that said, i’ll be reading more of lovecraft’s writings & see how i connect spiritually.
In this book you will find what i consider to be one of the best lovecraft's story: at the mountains of madness.
These tales also rank high in lovecraft's output.
Still, it is worth listening to if you are a fan of lovecraft's stories or a fan of horror stories in general.

The narrator cannot even remember how he came to discover this weird street and its tottering house where he found a room
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
The weirdness becomes nightmarish when he finally listens to the music of erich zann and the unfathomable menace that music seems to either conjure forth or fight against and in the end the nightmare quality becomes so spectacular that the narrator flees the place in horror

And yetdespite his fear of that horror this lonely narrator cannot help but seek that street again
