Description
This is the completionist's edition of the work of H.P. Lovecraft! Literally every single weird-fiction story he wrote, revised, or collaborated on - to the best of our knowledge - is in this one enormous volume.
The stories are arranged chronologically and contextualized with a brief running biography of the life of this fascinating author. If you're new to Lovecraft, reading or listening to this book will make you enough of an expert on his life and work to hold your own in any conversation. If you only own one H.P. Lovecraft collection, it should probably be this one.
In addition to The Call of Cthulhu (of course), this edition includes:
- At the Mountains of Madness
- The Shadow Over Innsmouth
- The Mound (with Zealia Bishop)
- The Case of Charles Dexter Ward
- Pickman's Model
- The Horror in the Museum (with Hazel Heald)
- The Thing on the Doorstep
- The Whisperer in Darkness
- Two Black Bottles (with Wilfred Blanch Talman)
- The Dunwitch Horror
- The Colour out of Space
- The Night Ocean (with R.H. Barlow)
- The Dreams in the Witch-House
- Cool Air
- The Trap (with Henry S. Whitehead)
- The Rats in the Walls
- The Shunned House
- Under the Pyramids (with Harry Houdini)
- In the Vault
- The Silver Key
- The Horror at Martin's Beach (with Sonia Haft Green)
- The Music of Erich Zann
- Herbert West, Reanimator
- The Disinterment (with Duane W. Rimel)
- The Outsider
- The Other Gods
- And several dozen more.

Classics read right by Finn John
I've read a collection of Lovecraft before this, but it has been a while, so I thought I would give one of my favorite Audible readers, Finn John, a try. The reading is perfectly matched for the author. I was surprised that the collection includes not only stories that Lovecraft wrote himself, but also works that he assisted, or ghost wrote for. On top of that, you are provided insight about Lovecraft's life at the time that each work was written.

For Lovecraft’s Fans
This encompasses most of Lovecraft’s writings. There are several different versions. Some come in 2 or 3 parts from the same publisher. This seems to be the best for the money. The narrator is just average. Check out some of the other comprehensive books, especially from the Lovecraftian Society. That one has more enthusiastic narrators.

Lovecraft is fantastic, but the narrator…..oi
I absolutely adore Lovecraft and was thrilled to find such a complete collection. However, they are stories of terror and eldrich things. The narrator delivers his reading in a singsong manner redolent of a dandy reciting poetry of romance to a lover. NOT enjoyable at all.
Had I been listening to poetry then sure, but not Lovecraft. And his insistence on reading every vowel in a word…. Ancient is read as anciant, sculptor read as sculptoor. Annoying.

Potential Fix
So Listening to this i enjoyed it however a fix that i saw could find was the timing of certain chapter for me were way off as the Dagon Story ran into Intro: A Reminisce of Dr. Samuel Johnson chapter and that chapter ran into the Intro: Nemesis chapter and every chapter after that followed those one followed suite.

Good road trip listen
A good listen. Really enjoyed finding all the available works in one volume. I could do without the discussions about each story but it's easy enough to skip.
The chapter titles don't match the content.

Over and over again
The best book I have ever read and or listened to. I must currently be on my fifth round with Audible. John Finn is the perfect narrator for HPL!

A wonderful and complete collection
This by far tge most complete Lovecraft audio collection to which I've had the pleasure of listening. Granted it could have been 1000% better had these fantastic stories been read by more than the single narrator. Still, this narrator does a good enough job to make listening entertaining though he sometimes slips into monotone.

Lovecraft at his best!
Kompletter kann eine Sammlung von Lovecrafts Werken wirklich nicht sein, denn Finn J.D. John hat nicht nur alle Werke mit eingeschlossen, die komplett aus Lovecrafts Feder stammen, sondern auch noch sämtliche Geschichten, bei denen er "nur" mitgewirkt hat. Schon im Vorwort wird klar, daß viel Herzblut in diese Sammlung geflossen ist und John sich nicht nur eingehend mit Lovecrafts Werken, sondern auch desser Leben auseinander gesetzt hat. Vor jeder Geschichte gibt es eine kurze autobiografische Erläuterung zu den Lebensumständen mit denen sich Lovecraft während des Verfassens der nächsten Geschichte konfrontiert sah. Die ganze Sammlung hat einen starken autobiografischen Charakter und bietet interessante Einblicke in Lovecrafts Leben und seine Arbeit als Autor.
Die Art und Weise, wie Finn J.D. John die Geschichten vorliest, ist im ersten Moment sehr gewöhnungsbedürftig, aber sie passt hervorragend zu der teils blumigen Wortwahl Lovecrafts und hebt den skurrilen Charakter, die vielen von Lovecrafts Erzähungen eigen sind, hervor.

Fantastic performance, slight technical issue
It should be 10 stars for this very completely complete edition of Lovecraft.
Finn J.D. John does a fabulous job and I hope he can live with this: his style and voice reminds me of Neil Gaiman at times, which is definitely not a bad thing. Especially not in a Shoggoth’s Old Peculiar sense, if you know what I mean...
Sadly there’s one issue that spoils the fun and that’s why it’s only 4 stars from me overall: in volume one, track number 11 is repeated and from there onwards all the chapter titles are one behind. Should be an easy one to correct, and once that’s done, it’s a full 5+++
