"The Ancient Track" is a good one to have.

As of right now I have Blood Curdling Tales of Horror and the Macabre, The Road to Madness, The Tomb and At the Mountains of Madness. 3 of those books I found in one bookstore. Luckly for me the owner is a huge HPL fan and had one more of one and another of one I already had. Unfortunately I'd probably have to find the rest online.

I wish someone would print a whole collection-I'd buy it. They could just call it something like "The Necronomicon, Volume 2".

Barnes & Noble has recently released H. P. LOVECRAFT -- THE FICTION, COMPLETE AND UNABRIDGED as a one volume hardcover edited by S. T. Joshi. It publishes a tale he wrote in early childhood for the first time. It has EVERYTHING in fiction that he wrote on his own, including the fragments AND the early discarded draft of "The Shadow over Innsmouth"!!! It's fucking amazing, this book -- BUT THE DAMN COPY EDITOR INTRODUCED A LOT OF TYPOS!!!!!! Hopefully the misprints will be corrected in future editions. It sucks that S. T. worked so hard to get near-perfect texts, and then some copy editor fucks it up. Still, the book is amazing, it's a sturdy hardcover and it's only $12.95!!!!!!! Find it in Barnes & Noble's bargain section. Every story has a wee introductory note by S. T. Also includes the essay, "Supernatural Horror in Literature"!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, I just got the B&N book. I about passed out when I saw that it was $13. Aside from the typos, it is awesome. I would be farther if CthuluTech hadn't distracted me.

After I finish it I want to look for a book of his letters, essays, poems, etc.

introduced typos? how, with faulty OCR scanning? did they have some poor slob actually hand-type everything for the book?

the three st joshi collections "call of chtulhu and other weird stories" "dreams in the witch house" and "the thing on the doorstep" and a wordsworth edition called "the loved dead" covers almost everything and all for pretty cheap.

I am also wanting to purchase a complete anthology and I would prefer hardback. From what I understand, the Barnes and Noble book "The Fiction: Complete And Unabridged" should definitely be purchased to gain all of the fiction in one hardback book right? "The Ancient Track: The Complete Poetical Works of H. P. Lovecraft" seems like the next book to buy because it contains all of the poetry in one hardback book right? If these are the best two books to buy, how much would be left after purchasing them? Just the letters and essays?
