Details
Multi eyed protoplasmic entities, flesh eating ghouls, animate corpses, time traveling body snatchers and, yes, even huge albino penguins. These are some of the bizarre creatures that populate the universe created by American horror author H.P. Lovecraft. Lovecraft has influenced many of today's most famous writers and artists, including Stephen King, Guillermo Del Toro, and H.R. Giger. This collection includes three selections from the Cthulhu Mythos: the novella At the Mountains of Madness, which is often considered Lovecraft's masterpiece; "The Thing on the Doorstep"; and "The Shadow out of Time." In addition to including all the chilling "cyclopean vistas," monstrous abominations, and appalling transformations, this collection also showcases his fantasy writing in stories such as "The Cats of Ulthar," "the Silver Key," and notably The Dream Quest of Unknown Kadath. This is a 322 page soft cover book.
