Publisher's Summary
For the first time ever, the H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society has produced an audio recording of all of Lovecraft's stories. These are not dramatizations like our Dark Adventure Radio Theatre - rather, this is an audiobook of the original stories, in all-new, never-before-heard recordings made by the HPLHS' own Andrew Leman and Sean Branney exclusively for this collection. Working from texts prepared by Lovecraft scholar S.T. Joshi, this collection spans his entire career from his earliest surviving works of childhood to stories completed shortly before his death. All tales include original music by HPLHS composer Troy Sterling Nies. This audio bonanza features 74 stories adding up to more than fifty (50!) hours of Lovecraftian listening fun, professionally performed and recorded for your enjoyment.

Embarrassing narration
After beginning with an obnoxiously indulgent and self-congratulatory prologue about the formation of their Lovecraft fan club, the narrators dive into reading the stories with frankly embarrassing results. One narrator in particular is woeful, taking ragged breaths after every few words, and adding completely unnecessary staggers to the flow of speech. Sounds like an excited 10-year-old telling his favourite story; not what you want in an audiobook.
Unfortunately due to the value of getting the complete works for 1 Audible credit, I will be soldiering on through the rest of the audiobook, but I highly recommend finding another reading.

its lovecraft
look there is no point me trying to explain why this is good. if you know what your considering purchasing then you know what your in for. its definitely something you hit for a bit then come back to after a bit just because it so long. but there is a hand full of story's that its worth just for those alone.

Good stories.
Good stories but I'm wondering if some are incomplete or just end part way through. Quite annoying.

Absolutely wonderful.
Lovely narration, both individuals voices were lovely and the wording, speaking was great. Of course there would be a little murmur or a mistake but that does not bother me as I have struggled when reading H.P Lovecraft often myself. The complexity in the writing itself is often of annoyance as intensely long words and sentences are common. Sean Branney had a very attractive and interesting yet intelligent voice which made me want to listen even more, voice acting on both narrators parts was stunning. Overall the narration, story and basically everything was superb! Wish to see more of the H.P Lovecraft society.

Absolutely brilliant!
These two brilliant gentleman have truly outdone themselves here. The scale of the works they had to read is impressive enough, but the passion they put into it shines through. There were a couple times where they mumbled through a word you can tell they'd done multiple takes of, but when reading the works of Lovecraft it is not just understandable, but expected. Having finished this I will be searching for the HPLHS online to see if there is anyway I can join an Australian branch.

Well done
Had never read anything by H.P Lovecraft and thought I’d try the audiobook out. The narration was done very well and although I didn’t find the stories to be so amazing that I would go around recommending everyone to read them, I still enjoyed this audiobook.

HP lovecraft
I really liked the narration. It done by clearly passionate people who are interested in the source material.
During the Shadow out of time there's several random sounds that play while the narrator speaks, it's not that disturbing but did I go back and listen to them to make sure i wasn't crazy. Other than that it's great.

Well performed and complete collection
Narrators were very good. lovecrafts work could be hit or miss though. it was written primarily in a style of reportage rather than trying to immerse you into the world alongside the characters. he often spoils the ending right at the beginning for example. regardless this is well worth a credit
