I gotta say it: Lovecraft ain't great. I know people all over the wolrd think he was a genius and like a "son" of Edgar Allan Poe, but I don't agree. I've read a few books from Lovecraft and although I recognize he had a big imagination, he wasn't a good writer, his style wasn't a big deal. I don't wanna hurt people feelings, I just wanna express my opinion. I believe part of his fame is because of there are no many horror writers and he wrote a lot, I mean a lot, of horror and scifi stories. So, as a creator of monsters he was good, but as a writer I believe he was barely ok.
