This is The Completionist’s Edition of the work of H.P. Lovecraft! Literally every weird-fiction story he wrote, revised, or collaborated on — to the best of our knowledge — is in this one enormous tome.
The stories are arranged chronologically and contextualized with a brief running biography of the life of this fascinating author. If you’re new to Lovecraft, reading or listening to this book will make you enough of an expert on the life and work of H.P. Lovecraft to hold your own in any conversation. If you only own one H.P. Lovecraft collection, it should probably be this one.
In addition to ‘The Call of Cthulhu’ (of course), this edition includes …
