Lovecraft. An Anthology

Today's free book is An H. P. Lovecraft Anthology. For the table of contents, check at the bottom of this post below the image. For more about Lovecraft's career, see this Wikipedia article: H. P. Lovecraft.

This collection is available at Sacred Texts and it is one of the most convenient places online to explore Lovecraft's writings. You'll see Bruno Hare's note there about how the copyrights for many of Lovecraft's works were not renewed (he had no heirs), which is why you will find free copies like this to read online. I think Lovecraft would be very pleased if he knew!
