Product Description
How many fetishes can you name? . . . because Hazel Greene has them all and more. Others may find her rape fantasies and water sports off-putting but she doesn't care - she needs them. After a fight with her boyfriend, she gets just what she wants - a road trip with the very pregnant love of her life to the middle of nowhere. But there is something very wrong with this backwater town. Suicide notes, magic gems, and haunted cabins await her. Plus the woods are filled with monster, both human and otherworldly. And then there are the horrible tentacles . . . Soon Hazel is thrown into a battle for her life that will test her sanity and sex drive. The sequel to H.P. Lovecraft's The Haunter of the Dark is Edward Lee's most pornographic novel to date!

Lovecraft and Lee +, Jan 24 2011
By Matt Parsons - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Haunter of the Threshold (Paperback)
This is a modern day lovecraftian horror tale told in Lee's unique style. For those not familiar with H.P. Lovecraft, he was a horror writer who spawned a whole circle of authors who told tales of secret ancient horrors older than man and cults of insane worshippers seeking to unlease these horrors on mankind. These stories rarely end well for the protagonist. Many of the horrors in the word of Lovecraft, remain nameless, veiled, and hidden from the reader to some degree and are often unspeakable.Ed Lee has taken this subject (which he is obviously fond of and familair with) and weaved us a modern Lovecraftian yarn as only he can. If you haven't read Ed Lee before, I must caution you. His stories contain scenes too intense for casual horror readers (rape, torture and so on). He is a very talented and imaginative writer and story teller which can cause you to keep reading despite the intense scenes.
That being said, if you like mythos themed horror and are prepared to read Lee's interpretation of the unspeakable and truely nameless, give the book a try. I must shamefully admit I enjoyed reading both Lee's Lovecraft books and hope he writes more Lovecraft themed fiction.

This review is from: The Haunter of the Threshold (Paperback)
As I read this book, I was reminded of the other reads that Edward Lee has done for the Lovecraftian books. This is the third that he has done now, and it is one of the first that has done a lot without losing more to the elements he brings. It is also a thicker book, going past the Trolley experiment he did in one of his other books and getting in there with his Deep One experiment. I liked that, having reead a lot of Lee, and I was glad he did what I thought he could. Instead of the Trolley, he went on and made a book of it all, and he went the way he should have. It wasn't a brothel story but more horror, going with the other addition he did. Like Creekers for the mythos audience, it played its own tune. i personally liked it, too.Edward Lee has been playing with the Lovecraftian slant for a little while now, adding on the things he thinks it needs. This basically means that he has added in some death and some places that are more sexually explicit, and it means that he has taken it places I do not see Lovecraft going. Sure, it is a modern place to take it and it says Lee so well. It also says Mythos well, and it is one of those things that you have to see to read. Still, it is not something someone would want if they had no idea what they were reading. It would not be like reading something modern in terms of adding on more brutality of more horror, because that happens. It is more of the experience in a way that is more rated mature, and I like that.
I see the stories and the additions and I see a lot of stuff that would be like the older array. Still, this is something new and it is something unique because, in horror, Lee is his own person. He has taken his slant and added on, giving people something they might not see otherwise. It is different and not taken lightly, either, because not everyone would want to go there. Reading reviews and other things about books like The Bighead should says that. If you know this then you might like it alot, and I would say pick this up. If you do not do not take a warning lightly, because you might hate it all. I give it a 4.6 and round to 5, saying it is nice. I think you can sample pages from it as well, seeing if that is something you want from the beginning.
Thank you for your time.

The Haunter of the Threshold, Aug 23 2011

This review is from: The Haunter of the Threshold (Paperback)
Okay, this was my first go at extreme fiction, or Edward Lee. Though I read reviews and book descriptions before purchasing, I was still quite unprepared for the constant downpour and variety of body fluids. Nonetheless, when i overcame my nausea, I continued reading, and in fact found it difficult to put the book down. There were some interesting ideas in this book, but you had to wade through some sewage to get to it. I suppose that connoisseurs of extreme fiction would be quick to jump right into another, while I might try and pick a book with just a little teeny-tiny bit less YUCK.
