Forty-eight of H.P. Lovecraft’s most important stories are brought together in this collection–available only from Audible–selected and with introductions by the award-winning, best-selling Lovecraft editor Leslie S. Klinger. Howard Philips Lovecraft was the early 20th-century genius who, almost singlehandedly, pioneered horror and scientific fiction, only to die in near-obscurity. Rediscovered by critics and scholars in the 1970s, Lovecraft’s work has influenced—by their own admission—every major horror or science-fiction writer of today.

A student of Native American lore investigates Yig - the shadowy snake god of an extinct tribe of the Great Plains. His investigation uncovers an account from 1889 of settlers homesteading in the Indian Territories of Oklahoma. A pervasive fear of snakes nudges a simple settler towards madness.

The red night of bells heralds global catastrophe. Annihilation on a biblical scale. Seeing the morning is no blessing. The handful of scattered survivors are confronted by blood-red skies and an infestation of predatory horrors that never originated on earth. An occupying force intent on erasing the remnants of animal life from the planet. Across the deserted landscapes of England, bereft of infrastructure and society, the overlooked can either hide or try to outrun the infernal hunting terrors. Until a rumour emerges claiming that the sea may offer an escape.

In great cities of the world, humanity congregates, and commerce, culture, and cosmopolitan sophistication blossom in their gardens. But in the shadows that lie beyond the broad boulevards and glare of electric lights, great cities give birth to something else. In these shadows thrives a dim underworld, peopled by nefarious characters brought together from every godforsaken corner of the globe. Can a lone policeman make a stand for decency against the godless denizens of New York’s most loathsome slum, or will he find himself consumed by the filth and depravity of nameless cults?

Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet.

It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

The Cthulhu Mythos is one of the 20th century's most singularly recognizable literary creations. Initially created by H. P. Lovecraft and a group of his amorphous contemporaries (the so-called "Lovecraft Circle"), The Cthulhu Mythos story cycle has taken on a convoluted, cyclopean life of its own. Some of the most prodigious writers of the 20th century, and some of the most astounding writers of the 21st century have planted their seeds in this fertile soil. The Book of Cthulhu harvests the weirdest and most corpulent crop of these modern mythos tales.

Very well done!
The narration was fantastic! Before this audiobook set I had very little experience in lovecrafts work, this was a great listen.

Great collection
This is a great one stop shop, but honestly it's just for Lovecraft fans. Most of his works aren't that good, especially his early stuff. It is interesting to hear the bad stuff alongside the legitimate masterpieces like At the Mountains of Madness or The Shadow Over Innsmouth.

All the Lovecraft you need
At the time of writing, this audiobook is available on Plus which is great. I've always wanted to read some of Lovecraft's stories.
Personally, I like the idea of the stories more than the actual stories themselves.
The narration is quite good and I found Edoardo Ballerini to be excellent. So much so that I'm listening to another audiobook that he narrated now. I didn't like the editor's notes on the stories however. As another review mentioned, the apologies about Lovecraft's racism and other flaws just go way overboard. And I really disliked the way Cthulhu is pronounced by the editor. He says it's the way it's supposed to be pronounced but after years of hearing it differently, I just didn't like it at all. Luckily the narrator of Call of Cthulhu pronounces it the way one would expect.

A good listen
There were parts expecially in the forward that sounds like additional audio was added after the initial recording and it sounds really out of place.
Also in reference to the people complaining about the forward mentioning Lovecraft's racism. The forward/introduction goes over Lovecraft's life, his writing, his inspirations, his death, his friends, and fans. It talks about after his death his friends tried to collect all his work and publish it. How the Cthulhu mythos came about it. All the media that is influenced by his work like tabletop games, movies, and other books etc.
At the end, it talks about his racism and it talks about how he was a man of the times and how with age his beliefs changed. That it might be an uncomfortable read and how it's worth reading anyways. So anyone complaining about it talking about how Lovecraft was a racism is just a whiny child. Get over yourself. It wouldn't the a critical reception of Lovecraft's work if it didn't include it.
The forward/introduction was very thorough and I grabbed some of the books/short stories that inspired Lovecraft to listen to. Don't listen to the whiny babies and give it a listen or just skip the intro LOL.

Great Introductions and Narration
While I’m not a fan of all of Lovecraft’s stories, this a great way to experience almost every piece of his work. The introductions by Klinger provide valuable context to each work, and he never attempts to avoid the bigotry that plagues much of Lovecraft’s writing. There are some genuinely great ideas here, even if the writing never lives up to the potential— it’s a shame that he died so young, as his writing seemed to only improve as he grew older and more comfortable with his collection of mythologies.

it is a good effort in general however...
I enjoyed the perfomance od the VAs resding the books, most of them were intense as the stories themselves deserved. However, the worst part of the production were the intros. I tortured myself with the first 2 of them and proceded to skip most of the rest; the ones I could not (having my hands occupied) confirmed my decision. I was actually hyped to have son context of the times when the book where written; factual information, not opinions presented in a factual format. What a wated opportunity.

Loved the narration and introductions
A haunting journey into Lovecraft’s world that horror fans must hear! I really enjoyed the introductions by scholar Leslie Klinger, as each one gave me a bit of valuable context without spoiling the story Plus all narrators’ performances truly captured the horror and suspense perfectly. Highly recommended!

The Most Socially Just of the Many HPL Colllections
Editor guides you by hand through the mean, mean world of a bigoted man he and other SJWs somehow adore.
