What will escape most is the content is aimed at making H.P. Lovecraft more generally known to the domestic fiction readers of the Greater English Isles, being only marketed to her dominions. Certain that Howard Phillips would smile covertly at the thought that his works were long steeped from a English Tradition that he embraced dearly. The volume is chocked with both early and late entries from both his works, and others whom tie themselves to the influences his writing wrung from them. Own most of H.P.L.'s reprinted tales, as his original works are mass printed items from Weird Tales during his lifetime. These are becoming scarce, and deserve only the respect deserving an item of a noted preservationists, as they are pulp-stocks and degrade with time and repeated handling. Please do yourself a greater service by buying a copy for your travels in worlds lit by only the faintest of life's flame, and even fainter latern lights. A must have for the enthusiasts. Thank you.Read full review

This and its brother book; Necronomicon The Best Weird Tales of H. P. Lovecraft ; are the end all be all books you need to have a almost complete Lovecraft collection. The 3rd book you need is called ; The Horror in The Museum ; and it contains these 3 stories: Curse of Yig, The Mound,The Horror In The Museum. Apart from these 3 books you are only missing The Man Of Stone, Out of the Aeons & The Tree On The Hill. These are the complete Lovecraft collection [not including Derleth's stuff] As for the book pertaining to this review; This thing is as thick if not thicker than a phone book, it is massive. However its height is that of a Bible. It contains some drawings which are nice to have. The hardback looks better than the paperback if you want aesthetics. Eldritch is a few centimeters shorter than its brother book. Overall if you are looking to find all of Lovecraft's works compressed into fewest books these are the ones to get. For the lack of artistry on the binding it makes up for in completeness. Read full review
