Review Quotes:
"H.P. Lovecraft has yet to be surpassed as the twentieth century's greatest practitioner of the classic horror tale." - Stephen King
"If Horror and Fantasy are cities, then H. P. Lovecraft is the kind of long street that runs from the outskirts of the first city to the end of the other. It began as a minor thoroughfare, and is now a six-lane highway, built up on every side." - Neil Gaiman
"This attractive volume offers a fine chance to sample Lovecraft's ghoulish pleasures." - Kirkus Reviews
