Customer Reviews

First and last book I shall ever get rid of...

This I am serious. This is just about the first Lovecraft book I ever got. If I were to go broke or die I will certainly not get rid of this one. In this book are all of Lovecrafts finest works. Though I must say to read them at first you will not understand quite fully,especially if for the first time reading Lovecraft. I recommend reading: The Loved Dead, The Hound, The Rats in the Walls and, Nyarlathotep.

A must for Lovecraft collectors

An excellent compilations of many of the short stories that did not make it into many of the mass market anthologies of recent years. Though yes, it also has a few of the old standbys like the Call of Cthulhu and At The Mountains of Madness. The small font and two-column layout means that there is a good deal more material in this book than the page count might tend to imply.

The best work of a great horror writer

This is the definitive collection of Lovecraft; if you've never read his work, but want to check him out, this is the place to start.

Horror as it should be.

King and Koontz don't stand-up to Lovecraft. This sampling ofhis definitive work, "The Cthulhu Mythos" as well as other stories,shows pure, definitive horror, twisted and convulsed beautifully. A definite must for the horror fan, filled with dark Gothic delights and terror.

Perfect Compilation of Lovecraft's work.

If you are a fan of Lovecraft, or just yearn for the dark side of imagination, this is your book. For those new to Herbert Lovecraft's work, he is one of the pioneers of horror writing. During his short lifetime, Lovecraft created dark mythos out of which he carved his apocalyptic tales. CRAWLING CHAOS is compilation of his most important works along with some very intersting biological info.
