| Publisher Description: In the Lovecraftian universe there exists many terrible and horrifying things, from extraterrestrial gods and ancient secrets to zealous cults, supernatural beasts and beyond. Lovecraft's 1939 short story "In the Walls of Eryx" centres around the life and demise of a Venetian prospector who becomes lost in an invisible maze while mining on the planet Venus. Lovecraft's first and only science fiction story, this book is not to be missed by short story lovers and fans of Lovecraft's exceptional fiction. Other notable works by this author include: "At the Mountains of Madness", "The Rats in the Walls", and "The Shadow Over Innsmouth". Howard Phillips Lovecraft (1890-1937) was an American writer of supernatural horror fiction. Though his works remained largely unknown and did not furnish him with a decent living, Lovecraft is today considered to be among the most significant writers of supernatural horror fiction of the twentieth century. Read & Co. is publishing this classic short story now as part of our "Fantasy and Horror Classics" imprint in a new edition with a dedication by George Henry Weiss. |
