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.

Came for Jonathan Davis, stayed for the story

Editor's Pick
"Nazis targeted NJ in the ‘30s. Newark fought back."
"As a New Jersey native, armchair historian, and someone who works in Newark every day, I probably should’ve known the inspiring story about the Minutemen in the 1930s. Pro-Nazi groups tried to recruit American immigrants, and enjoyed early, sinister success. A faction of Jewish mobsters, ex-boxers, students, and factory workers defended Jewish interests in Newark, led for a time by Nat Arno, the Minuteman of the title. Greg Donahue, a talented documentary storyteller, and Jonathan Davis—one of my favorite narrators—bring forgotten history to life with nuance and a hint of contemporary urgency. Who knew? Now we all do!"
