The weird fiction short stories of H.P. Lovecraft from 1917-1935. Excludes collaborations.

I compiled this eBook as a free release on my site CthulhuChick.com. I've added it to the Kindle store for convenience, and because someone else was trying to sell it here, but you can always get it for free on the site.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lovecraft, in order and intact, June 23, 2011

By 

Frank Unknown - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Complete Works of H.P. Lovecraft (Kindle Edition)

This is the best e-book collection of Lovecraft I've seen yet. Other versions have typos, errors, and even entire missing chunks of text (for example, the first paragraph of "The Other Gods" has been missing from two different eBooks I've tried). Things like italics are left out, and the stories are presented in no real order. In other words, most other Lovecraft e-books I've tried looked like they were shoddily slapped together, probably copied and pasted straight from Wikisource.

This collection suffers from none of that. The stories are in chronological order by composition, the text is (as far as I can tell) error-free, all those pesky missing passages are present, and even the italics are intact. I'm sure that if you read a lot of e-books, especially items from the public domain, you'll agree that having a clean, well-edited text makes a world of difference for readability and enjoyment.

I recommend the hell out of this collection.

If you're a fan of H.P. Lovecraft and a big Kindle user, this is the book for you. You can get the free version from her web site, but I'd rather spend the 99 cents to support the hard-working person who put together this collection. Also, this way it's synced across devices.

Awesome that she offers it for free (at CthulhuChick.com), but if you want to support all of her hard work in putting it together it's well worth the $0.99 charged here for this great collection of classic horror literature.
