The Road to Madness

I enjoyed this collection of short stories and novellas by H.P. Lovecraft. My favorites included “Herbert West–Renanimator,” “Imprisoned with the Pharoahs,” and “At the Mountains of Madness.” The first one I liked because of the way the narrator told the story - first a little bit, and then it repeats with more and more detail. I liked the second story because it was told from the point of view of Harry Houdini. And finally, I liked the third story because it was a good mix of discovery, adventure, and horror. Plus, it takes place in one of my favorite literary settings, Antarctica.

This is a sort of re-read. My son wanted to start reading Lovecraft so I gave him a couple of my old books. I decided to re-read some with him and some were ones I hadn't read yet. Instead of reviewing each book here's a list of what i read:
* The Outsider
* Herbert West, Re-animator
* The Statement of Randolf Carter
* The Call of Cthulhu
* The Lurking Fear
* The Thing on the Doorstep
* The Haunter of the Dark
* The Shadow Over Innsmouth
* The Dunwich Horror
* The Music of Erich Zann
* The Rats in the Walls
* At the Mountains of Madness
