He writes with such intensity that you can't put the book down. If this is your kind of book reading i highly suggest getting this book."

    "At the Mountains of Madness: And Other Tales of Terror is written by H.P. Lovecraft and has many, many reviews on Amazon. A collection of tales, many reviewers regard the title as 'classic Lovecraft'. The question on whether it's the "best Lovecraft books" isn't clear, but it could be a contender."

    "The author does a pretty good job of continuing the Lovecraft universe as far as a writing a pageturner. There were too many characters to keep track of, however. Also, there was no character development to speak of."

    "As this is not actually a Lovecraft book, it technically doesn't fit as a lovecraft book; it is however a prequel to one of his. I wouldn't read this if you're just getting into Lovecraft books though."
