The H. P. Lovecraft Collection

Really cool little collection. The books are on the small side and text is small but they are well made books. Looks fantastic.Im new to lovecraft but enjoying it so far. The language is older and had to google soome words.This guy REALLY likes the grave robbing thing.

This is a very attractive set & for the price, I was pleasantly surprised by the quality.The box is very thick card with a fabric top & a nice logo on the sides. The only disappointment is that the barcode is printed on the back of the box itself - such a pity it wasn't on a removable sticker or even a piece of paper within the clingfilm. Nevertheless, the back will usually not be visible when this set is displayed on a bookcase.The books themselves are small - a good size to take with you while travelling. They are nicely bound with good quality paper & nice fabric covers which are a joy to touch & smell (and who doesn't like smelling new books?!). The title & the pattern on each front cover is also indented, making it even more tactile.When I first came across Lovecraft's work, it was in the form of old paperbacks printed in (I think) the '50's or '60's which had titles such as 'The Dunwich Horror And Other Stories', just like this volume. But these are not collected in the same way. Here, the stories are collected by theme, so the more famous stories are kept together, as are the Randolph Carter stories & tales set in the dreamlands - which is a very good system. Another minor disappointment is that the introduction (which consists primarily of general background about Lovecraft) is the same in every book, except for one paragraph which relates to the book in question. As this is a set, it would have been nice to have a different intro for each one, which would have given the publishers a chance to provide more information. But it's the stories themselves which hare the stars of the show.This is not a complete collection & nor does it claim to be. But all of Lovecraft's best & most influential works are here. Comparing the contents of this one to a complete collected volume which I also own, I do not feel that I have been short-changed in buying this set. Indeed, I am more likely to read this edition because having Lovecraft's work split into several smaller volumes instead of one breeze-block of a thing is much easier on my wrists, plus the fabric covers are a joy to hold. Recommended.UPDATE - This box-set edition has a contents page in each volume (as per the photograph I have added) & page numbers. I presume that the reviews which say otherwise are referring to the Kindle version (which I have not seen, so don't know whether it has a contents page or not) of a different edition.

I love them 😍 the books themselves are excellent quality on good white paper. I think the font is slightly smaller than your average book, but I’ve had no trouble reading it and I wear glasses. It looks great on display and they’ve caught the interest of my teenage kiddos, who also want to read them! I look forward to reading them all. Highly recommended.

The text is a bit dense but for the price I'm blown away by how pretty these are

The writing is second to none ,very dark and creepy in a good way.The only beef is the size of the books,they are small therefore so is the type would gladly payed more for larger books

Lovecraft is Genre defining and not talked about enough

LOVED IT

Those books are of amazing quality, with no weird glue smell, and no weird paper, and everything seems to be too good for that price. I pay £50 for one book made in Italy with a fabric cover and here we have 6 amazing books that are set in one box as a collection! The paper is not premium but it is good quality and one thing that was pointed out to me when I showed those books to my mother is that the letters are quite small, I didn't notice it really and I'm already half way through the first book.

Ho comprato questa bellissima box set, che mi è arrivata dall'Inghilterra in poco meno di una settimana. Non entrando nel merito dei capolavori del maestro Lovecraft (che non avrebbero di certo bisogno di una mia recensione su Amazon), mi limiterò a parlare del prodotto fisico. L'imballaggio per la raccolta è stato impeccabile, la box set mi è arrivata incellofanata, come nuova. Nessun'ammaccatura, nulla di cui lamentarsi. I libri fanno un figurone sulla mensola, esteticamente appaganti, sono solidissimi, resistenti e della giusta media dimensione per essere comodamente sfogliati. Non posso parlare nel merito del testo originale inglese, non essendo erudita su ipotetici processi di modifica al testo originale o altro. Per chi è un abitante consolidato del genere, della narrativa, della fantasia più sfrenata, non sta a me ricordarvi quanto queste letture nella loro interezza siano imprescindibili. Buone avventure a chi li leggerà per la prima volta.

Muito cuidadosos, e atenciosos! O produto chegou antes do prazo, impecável!

Beautiful collection with very nice clothbound covers. Somewhat smaller text but ok.All in all very lovely boxset
