The New Annotated H.P. Lovecraft: Beyond Arkham

Even better than the first one
Mainly I prefer the form factor of this volume since it's a little smaller and easier to handle than the first (which is still a lovely book). It includes a really nice collection of stories.. I mostly got it for The Lurking Fear (loved the artwork and original publication information contained within), but it was nice to find that it also includes some of Lovecraft's lesser known stories which are even slight collaborations such as Under the Pyramids. Many stories which fit in between these two in terms of their popularity are includedI now have the two annotated Lovecraft's and also 'Medusa's Coil and Others' and 'The Crawling Chaos and Others' and I'm really happy with this particular combination of books as a means to owning pretty much everything Lovecraft wrote in the most satisfying way to me in terms of readability and visual/physical quality of books, decided upon after very careful and lengthy research on the various current options available for doing this, of which there are many!

Worthy
So worth it if you're a Lovecraft fan.

Beautifully done
This is the second volume of Klinger’s Lovecraft annotations and it is full of information.It comes in about half the weight of the first one ,still a large book but carrying around and reading isn’t as hard as the first.The annotations also are all closer to the page they are referring to this time.Most of of them are in the same page.This is an improvement because the first volume had some very long annotations and if 3 or so were close ,you would be flipping back to find the information.Shorter stories in this one ,one of my favorites “He” is included and I found out even more information.Leslie is very in depth and keeps almost all political/social commentary out of all of his works which is such a positive especially now and with Lovecraft.”Just the facts,Mam” Joe Friday of annotated works. Beautiful photos and illustrations inside as well.
