Review: This book is absolutely beautiful and a fine salute to the king of cosmic horror. It has easily established itself as the prize book on my bookshelf, partially due to its aesthetic. Some of the colours on the front, back and spine can be scratched away and when taking the poster off the inside cover I found it almost impossible not to take some of the page with it. That said, I've owned this book for quite a while and its presentation still wows me every time I look at it. Some of Lovecraft's most well known stories such as 'the Call of Cthulhu' and 'the Shadow over Innsmouth' are featured in this book.Before purchasing, I had only read the larger titles written by Lovecraft, however, after reading this book I found that one of my favourite stories was 'the Horror in the Museum' which I had never encountered before. What I'm trying to say is that this book is good at providing the large titles which everyone wants to read but is also very good at providing the smaller ones that can be even more enjoyable. Almost every story in this book has entertained me in some way. The price may turn away some heads and if you just want cheap access to some of Lovecraft's stories then I would suggest buying another book or going to the electronic texts of Lovecraft which have all of his stories and poems written up electronically (it's where I read the story of Charles Dexter Ward which is not featured in this book). However, if you're looking to get a decorative volume of Lovecraft's tales with a good amount of his stories, then I would wholeheartedly suggest you purchase this book.

Review: I was really looking forward to getting this book but when i opened it i noticed there where scratches in the side of the pages and so i started to flick through the pages to see if everything was okay and about half the pages where stuck together by the gold paint that was used for the side of the book im very disappointed with the quality of this book dont waste your money
