Summary
(From the publisher):
H.P. Lovecraft's tales of the tentacled Elder God Cthulhu and his pantheon of alien deities were initially written for the pulp magazines of the 1920s and '30s. These astonishing tales blend elements of horror and science fiction and are as powerful as they were when they initially appeared. For the first time ever in a single volume, this definitive collection gathers together in chronological order all of Lovecraft's major stories and short novels, including the complete 'Cthulhu Mythos' cycle, just as they were originally published more than half a century ago.
