Howard Phillips Lovecraft may have been a writer for only a short time, but the creations he left behind after his death in 1937 have shaped modern horror more than any other author in the last two centuries: the shambling god Cthulhu, and the other deities of the Elder Things, the Outer Gods, and the Great Old Ones, and Herbert West, Reanimator, a doctor who unlocked the secrets of life and death at a terrible cost. In Lovecraft Unbound, more than twenty of today's most prominent writers of literature and dark fantasy tell stories set in or inspired by the works of H.P. Lovecraft.

very impressed by this anthology! The authors have really managed to take inspiration from HPL without stripping away their own, unique voice and approach to storytelling, and--bless the Old Ones!--without descending at all into pastiches.
