The Call of Cthulhu

By: H. P. Lovecraft

Narrated by: Felbrigg Napoleon Herriot

Professor Angell was an expert on ancient languages. When a young man brought a grotesque carving to his office that contained a strain of hieroglyphics that were unreadable to all, it started the strangest and most horrific research of his life.

The statue would lead the professor and is great-nephew to discover the awful truth of the cult of Cthulhu and what its existence meant for the future of mankind.

Solid story.

I just got into lovecraft so I'm probably just feeling the hype, but it's a solid story. Maybe a bit dated, but I think that's to be expected given the books age.

A prototype horor

Taking into account, when this was written, the author had to be very imaginative. Really well, food for imagination this is.

Hard to Follow

This was my first introduction to Lovecraft. It was a reading assignment for an English Lit class in college. The narrator was fine but the way Lovecraft writes, no dialog and a lot of made up words or archaic obsolete words, this book is hard to follow without actually looking at the words on the page. Even looking at the words it was hard for me to wrap my head around. I have had several people tell me this is not the best Lovecraft story, and I might enjoy Lovecraft better if I had been reading a different book of his.
So my suggestion is that if you've never read Lovecraft before and want to check him out to see what his fans are saying is his best story and start with that.

loved how it was written, and spoken.

I forgot I was listening to a book and just got so caught up I thought this just someone telling me about something that happened. couldnt stop listening.

It's vintage macabre.the voice actor fit very well

even though it's supposed to be horror there is a certain warning message in it.
