Tales of the Cthulhu Mythos, Volume I

I was out traversing a few garage sales and I stumbled upon this gem in a free box: H.P. Lovecraft (and other): Tales of the Cthulhu Mythos, vol. 1., and vol 2.

Some of you might remember a review of a collection of HP Lovecraft works a few months back. Having read that, I soon realized Lovecraft's works were in the public domain, and thus I hardly needed a hard-copy. These stories are predominantly by other authors in the tradition of H.P. Lovecraft and correlation much of Lovecraft's fantastical aberrations. Plus, for free, its hard to pass up.

The short stories within vol. 1 are as follows:

The Call of Cthulhu by HP Lovecraft: The story featuring Lovecraft's most fantastic creature.

The Return of the Sorcerer by Clark Ashton Smith: A man takes a job working for a disturbed researcher...too short for more information.

Ubbo-Sathla by Clark Ashton Smith: a mysterious crystal leads to all sorts of evil;

The Black Stone by Robert E. Howard: a black stone invokes strange visions of years and evils past...

The Hounds of Tindalos by Frank Belknap Long: a researcher invokes a drug to enable time travel, quickly goes insane fearing the Hounds of Tindalos will come at him through angles in the walls...

The Space-Eaters by Frank Belknap Long: mystery in the woods when a neighbor drops by; he's ranting about evil and there seems to be something dreadful in the wood..

The Dweller in the Darkness by August Derleth: something is out there in the woods of Northern Wisconsin, and professors from Madison search to determine what it is, possibly one of the creatures Lovecraft "factually" wrote about...

Beyond the Threshold by August Derleth: Grandfather is obsessed with finding a secret threshold in his Wisconsin home, much to the dispair of his grandsons.

The Salem Horror by Henry Kuttner: Famed author finds a secret underground room used by a former occupant in his house for witchcraft.

The Haunter of the Graveyard by J. Vernon Shea: horror film enthusiast finds a secret passageway in his house...

More to come when I read vol 2.
