Location: UK		Mountains of Madness is rather slow,I admit,and the trek though the tunnels seems interminable! And giant penguins seem a little amusing rather than awesome! lol. I much prefer Lovecraft's shorter fiction. Are you familiar with the Lovecraft Archive at www.hplovecraft.com ? Its a website with all his work free online,and I am steadily working my way through his stories. They are not so much horror stories in the modern gruesome sense as weird fiction. I love to settle down on a winter afternoon in a cozy room with a cup of hot chocolate,and revel over the grandiloquent prose and read about nameless creatures from the depths of space driving men to madness. Love it.I particularly like The Color out of Space.
Not to everyone's taste,but Lovecraft is still massively influential right up to today.
