Above average anthology from the usually outstanding Datlow (the hardest working editor in horror). Avoids some traps by excluding some of the usual suspects you would expect in an anthology like this (I won't name them) and substituting others who I bet this was their first foray into Lovecraftiana...
Here’s one of those books that uses its title to explicitly tell you what you’re getting - a collection of stories featuring all things squamous, cyclopean and antediluvian: Lovecraft’s Monsters.Filled with a variety of tales that revolve around amphibious people, trans-dimensional head-fuckery and ...
This was an ARC from NetGalley.This anthology is an excellent homage to the monsters of Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos. Solid stories by some of the best authors in the business, past and present, each with a striking illustration make this a must for any fan of the Mythos.
You can always count on Ellen Datlow to put together a good anthology! As with any collection, I personally like some stories more than others, but this is definitely recommended: not just for Lovecraft fans, but for any reader of horror and dark fantasy.***** Only the End of the World Again by N...
Lovecraft's Monsters is a short story anthology of tales featuring monsters created by H.P. Lovecraft.First off, H.P. Lovecraft, along with Edgar Rice Burroughs and Arthur Conan Doyle, is a writer that I'm much more interested in the works they inspired rather than their own writings. I know it's ak...

Not a bad collection of short stories a little creepy but not scary. I can say I did enjoy reading this horror collection better then Stephen King's [b:Full Dark, No Stars|10639261|Full Dark, No Stars|Stephen King|http://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1347374104s/10639261.jpg|11067830].
A great book for anyone who loves zombie stories. I was impressed with the scope of the stories, everything from the typical fortified gated school with a few survivors, to an "Our Town" for a zombie world. A man surviving in the archival vault of a library, to a corporation charging to bring back...
I just read the first story in this collection. I picked it up at a friend's house and saw that there was a contribution from Caitlín R. Kiernan, so I read it while waiting. It was good. I noticed there were stories from a couple other authors I often enjoy, Cherie Priest and Tim Pratt, so I may see...
