Highly recommended. -- Book Nutter's Book Reviews This is an excellent collection of Lovecraft's 'zombie' stories, which serves both as a treat to old fans and a sampler to people who haven't read Lovecraft before. I would highly recommend this collection. -- Of Stacks and Cups Joyce Carol Oates, Stephen King, and other experts on horror fiction deem H. P. Lovecraft the master teller of weird tales. These six chilling stories ― all published between 1921 and 1933 ― offer compelling journeys into the land of the undead. The collection begins with The Outsider, the tale of a recluse whose overwhelming loneliness emboldens him to seek out human contact. Subsequent stories include Herbert West ― Reanimator, written as a satire of Frankenstein and used as the source for a popular horror film; In the Vault, in which an undertaker experiences supernatural revenge; Cool Air, an account of a doctor's fanatical obsession with defying death; and Pickman's Model, focusing on an artist's gallery of nightmares. The Thing on the Doorstep concludes the compilation with the compelling tale of a man whose body is preyed upon by a spirit that refuses to die. Highly recommended. A great way to re-animate Lovecraft's standing as a master of the horror genre. -- Looking for a Good Book A delightfully horrific collection of tales that will thrill any horror fan -- A Universe in Words", "item_img_path" : "https://covers3.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/0/48/679/806/0486798062_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "7.99", "online_price" : "7.99", "our_price" : "7.99", "club_price" : "7.99", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
