Just in time for Halloween, Barnes & Noble has something new for Lovecraft fans.
Synopsis
In the 1920s and ‘30s, H.P. Lovecraft pioneered a new type of weird fiction that fused elements of supernatural horror with the concepts of visionary science fiction. Lovecraft’s tales of cosmic horror revolutionized modern horror fiction and earned him the reputation as the most influential American writer of weird tales since Edgar Allan Poe.
This omnibus collects for the first time in a single volume all of Lovecraft’s groundbreaking fiction: “The Call of Cthulhu,” “The Dreams in the Witch House,” “The Haunter of the Dark,” “At the Mountains of Madness,” “The Shadow out of Time,” “The Shadow over Innsmouth,” the full-length novels The Case of Charles Dexter Ward and The Dream Quest of Unknown Kadath, and many others.
H.P. Lovecraft: The Fiction is part of Barnes & Noble’s Library of Essential Writers. Each title in the series presents the finest works—complete and unabridged—from one of the greatest writers in literature in magnificent, elegantly designed hardback editions. Every volume also includes an original introduction that provides the reader with enlightening information on the writer’s life and works.
Note: It doesn’t appear as if Lovecraft’s collaborations with/ghost-writings for other authors are included, but his juvenilia and exceptional essay “Supernatural Horror in Literature” are included.

Well, this will give me something to look for when I’m in a Barnes & Noble in a couple weeks. Thanks for pointing this out, Amy.
I’ve never been much into Lovecraft but I certainly have read more of his work since becoming a regular reader of The Hogshead. And I did enjoy playing the Call of Cthulu role-playing game, too.
Oh, this is great. I’ve been refraining from new book purchases for a long time, but I think that resistance is about to break.
It’s very reasonably priced, not to mention convenient!
Wow, the cover art looks amazing!
I picked up my copy yesterday. I’m going to try to get through a few more Lovecraft stories during the last few weeks of this year’s Halloween season.
I work at a Barnes & Noble and these Complete and Unabridged author books are awesome and “very reasonably priced” as Amy mentioned. I haven’t seen the H.P. Lovecraft one yet but I can’t wait to pick up a copy soon.
