A review by bonnybonnybooks
At the Mountains of Madness by H.P. Lovecraft

5.0

H.P. Lovecraft is, truly, a master of horror.

An arctic expedition. A discovery of mysterious creatures buried in the ice. The aftermath of a massacre. The ruins of an ancient civilization. And always, always a warning that others should not attempt to follow the narrator’s footsteps, for fear of a greater evil occurring.

And throughout the novel, a sense of lurking dread and eeriness.

This is my first Lovecraft, but it certainly won’t be my last. This is perfect for cold, dark wintery nights.
