Product Description

He is not to open the door which leads to the strange time and place, nor to invite Him Who lurks at the threshold ..." went the warning in the old family manuscript that Ambrose Dewart discovered when he returned to his ancestral home in the deep woods of rural Massachusetts. Dewart's investigations into his family's sinister past eventually lead to the unspeakable revelations of The Great Old Ones who wait on the boundaries of space and time for someone to summon them to earth. Acclaimed cult horror writer H. P. Lovecraft's notes and outlines for this tale of uncanny terror were completed by August Derleth, his friend and future publisher. Of the many Lovecraft-Derleth "posthumous collaborations," The Lurker at the Threshold remains the most popular, having sold 50,000 copies in its previous edition alone.

Ingram

Ambrose Dewart returns to his ancestral estate and sets about restoring the mansion to his own tastes. In the process he comes across a document signed by his great grandfather invoking a sinister injunction to future generations: "Do not invite he who lurks at the threshold!". --Ce texte provient d'une édition qui n'est plus publiée ou qui est non diponible.

3.0étoiles sur 5 Good story, well done, Jui 17 2004
Par M. R Turner "zenresistance" (Edgemoor, SC United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
It's a good read. It's not an action-packed, thrill-a-minute magnum opus, as it seems some wish it wouldve been. It's a rich, Gothic story... not trendy modern neo-Gothic. There is a vast distinction.

It has a good pace. It's nicely done. It's enjoyable.

2.0étoiles sur 5 OH GOD IT HURTS, Avril 27 2004
Par "topher_h" (Somewhere near a road.) - Voir tous mes commentaires
Wow, I never knew books could just drone on and on like this on did. The only reason i gave this book two stars instead of one is because it has it's interesting points. The last half of the last section of the book comes to mind. But other then that this book is not worth the paper it was printed on. This is the first "Lovecraft" book I've read and am far from impressed. At times i actually found myself dozing off while reading this book. Now I'm about eightteen pages from the end, and decided to save them for before I go to bed, for sure, it will put me to sleep. Avoid this book, at all cost. Read and actual Lovecraft book, I hear those are pretty good.

3.0étoiles sur 5 Some much misinformation about this neglected novel
Of all the reviews written here about this long out of print work I am astonished by all the misinformation written by so-called fans. Lisez davantage

5.0étoiles sur 5 THREE STARS?!? WHAT!?
Why did these people give this bad ratings? It ends because the guy summoning the thing dies. These people don't seem to understand that. My favorite book.

1.0étoiles sur 5 A Nice Mythos Overview is the best that can be said
Having read two books chocked full of REAL Lovecraft short stories, I was looking forward to a "book length" story of his horror. Lisez davantage

1.0étoiles sur 5 Don't make the same mistake I did!
I purchased this book under the pretense that it was written by Lovecraft. After hearing so much praise about HPL, I couldn't wait to start reading it. Lisez davantage

2.0étoiles sur 5 WARNING:THIS IS NOT BY LOVECRAFT
This book is actually written by August Derleth, after HPL's death, supposedly off of notes Lovecraft had sitting around. Lisez davantage

Mostly written by Auggie, and representing a dramatic departure from Lovecraft's cosmology. Bad prose, characterization, development, etc. Lisez davantage

"The Lurker at the Threshold" is listed with H.P. Lovecraft as the first author--in fact, one finds August Derleth's name only in the small print on the back cover... Lisez davantage

2.0étoiles sur 5 One of DERLETH'S better books.
This is one of Derleth's (in)famous "posthomous collaborations" with HPL, where he took a few scraps HPL did and slotted them into his own story. Lisez davantage
