Peter Straub is one of America's foremost authors of supernatural and suspense fiction. He is the New York Times bestselling author of a dozen novels, including the horror classic Ghost Story and The Talisman, which he cowrote with Stephen King. His latest novel, Black House-also written with King-is a #1 New York Times bestseller. A past president of the Horror Writers of America and multiple award winner, he lives in New York City.
A fair amount of Lovecraft is offered in this volume, which includes annotated and illustrated versions of his short stories "The Rats in the Walls," "The Colour Out of Space," and "The Dunwich Horror," plus the novella At the Mountains of Madness. There is also an introduction, excerpts from Lovecraft's letters, in which he addresses "weird fiction," and an appendix. This dandy little volume is so nicely done that one only wishes more of the author's stories were included. One hopes a second annotated volume will be coming soon. A real bargain for the price.
