A collection of short stories and tales of horror from the master of the genre, H.P. Lovecraft. Although Lovecraft's readership was limited during his life, his reputation has grown over the decades, and he is now commonly regarded as one of the most influential horror writers of the 20th century, who together with Edgar Allan Poe has exerted "an incalculable influence on succeeding generations of writers of horror fiction". Stephen King has called Lovecraft "the twentieth century's greatest practitioner of the classic horror tale." - From Wikipedia.orgStories included in this volume:The AlchemistThe Beast In The CaveBeyond The Wall Of SleepDagonMemoryThe Picture In The HouseThe White ShipThe Cats Of UltharThe Doom That Came To SarnathNyarlathotepThe Statement Of Randolph CarterThe StreetEx OblivioneMore stories and tales of horror available in Volumes 2+3 of this series.
