At the Mountains of Madness and Other Novels of Terror by H.P. Lovecraft
3.0
This book collects 7 novels and novella's written by Hp lovecraft. I read all these between other books over a very long period. I just finished the last story in here. Most of these are part of his chuthullu mythos. All the stories were at least enjoyable, and some of them like "at the mountains of madness" or "dreamquest in unknown kaddath" are very good.
The language is very difficult at times but the way the language is used provokes a very chilling effect at times. In the pacing and the characterization you feel that these stories are written in the 20's, 30's and 40's. But you also clearly see the influence Lovecraft has on modern horror writers.
Lovecraft is a writer, everybody should have at least sampled.
