    Lovecraft: The Myth of Cthulhu is a chilling collection of some of H.P. Lovecraft's greatest works. Each illustration lends depth and gravity to the many excerpts of Lovecraft's work in a fashion I have yet to see in other adaptations. Maroto's rendition of Lovecraft's style and his interesting additions to"The Festival" were impressive. Though it was great to see the many excerpts of Lovecraft's work included in this collection, modifying some of the narration into dialogue would have been fascinating to read. I think it would have added even more depth to "The Festival" and "The Call of Cthulhu” as well. However, the exclusion of dialogue does not hurt any of Maroto's adaptations. In fact, this is perfect as an introduction to Lovecraft. Additionally, it is a great artistic rendering of his work that both horror and Lovecraft fans alike can enjoy. Read Full Review
