Product Overview
From the front flap of this 1100 page book: In the 1920s and '30s, H.P. Lovecraft pioneered a new type of weird fiction that fused elements of supernatural horror with concepts of visionary science fiction. Lovecraft's tales of cosmic horror revolutionized modern horror fiction and earned him the reputation as the most influential American writer of weird tales since Edgar Allan Poe. This omnibus collects for the first time in a single volume all of Lovecraft's groundbreaking fiction: 'The Call of Cthulhu', 'The Dreams in the Witch House', 'The Haunter of the Dark', 'At the Mountains of Madness', 'The Shadow out of Time', 'The Shadow over Innsmouth', the full-length novels 'The Case of Charles Dexter Ward' and ''The Dream Quest of Unknown Kadath', and many others. [This book] is part of Barnes and Noble's Library of Essential Writers. Each title in the series presents the finest works - complete and unabridged - from one of the greatest writers in literature in magnificent, elegantly designed hardback editions.
