Worth the listen

Yes the narrator is difficult to deal with, but try the read speed at X.75 and it gives it more of a dark feel. Standard X1.0 speed was practically unbearable. The explanation between short stories are enjoyable and help give context to many of the writings. I make many long drives and find this to be an enjoyable way to pass the time. Worth the read despite the narrator. He is not talent-less despite some reviews, just not one of the greats you will long to listen to.

Recommend for anyone super Lovecraft fans

Fantastic short stories, I chose this series because I instantly knew I enjoyed the narrator though I know not everyone will like him. I would say if you like him in the sample and don't mind that being how he narrates all the stories then you'll be fine. I was pleasantly surprised by the biographical side of the story. It gave alot of context I didn't know and enjoyed the vast majority of the stories as well.

great collection, monotone narrator

lovecraft's stories are all somewhat similar and can often make the reader feel like they are reading the same story over and over. thats nit a bad thing, but when you combine it with the narrators monotone speedy reading it can be overwhelming. i really would have liked the narrator to do some character work, but sadly none exists. So every story feels like the same character investigating some horror.

Great

For those who don't know HP Lovecraft is widely admitted to be the inspiration for every major Sci-Fi / Horror author and and movie maker of the 20th century and beyond. A must read.

Go to YouTube

I will have to say that I'm struggling to get through this. The narrator is God awful. yes he can read, but he has no range as a vocal actor. if you are interested in the background to each of Lovecrafts writings than this may be for you,but if not I would say just go look to YouTube.
