The Thing on the Doorstep and Other Weird Stories by H.P. Lovecraft

4.0

I mostly checked this out because I wanted to read "At the Mountains of Madness" but found there were other titles as well that I hadn't read yet. Many were Lovecraft's earlier works before he had created his horrific pantheon of outer gods, but the spirit and tone that I've come to expect of him are still there. I skipped the stories I had already read. "At the Mountains of Madness" was definitely my favorite, and "The Case of Charles Dexter Ward" was interesting but rather tedious. Neither of them supplanted "The Whisperer in Darkness" as my favorite Lovecraft story, however. Overall, a solid collection.
