Lovecraft, H.P.: The Complete Collaborations. V5. 11 September 2011
Here is the complete collaborative fiction of H. P. Lovecraft that is available to the public domain. These collaborations are defined by the H. P. Lovcraft's listing in Wikipedia and all of the stories come from the H. P. Lovecraft Archive website.
Many thanks go to: Pdurrant for providing the cover which can be found at: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=27083 Valloric for providing such an excellent tool in Sigil as this book was created using it. Jellby for his list of corrections and finding that amazing font. Prestidigitweeze for his support and help with the declaration page. And lastly: All members of this fantastic site for providing such a great place for all us ebook enthusiasts. All stories have been proof-read using the H. P. Lovecraft Archive site, if anyone has a better source, then feel free to double check the stories. Lovecraft's juvenilia is available here: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=64574 Lovecraft's Fiction is available here: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=94970 Lovecraft's essays is available here: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=95822 Lovecraft's poetry is available here: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=96762 Enjoy. Ver. 1 15th December 2009 (392 downloads) Initial release. Ver. 2 23th August 2010 (2 downloads for non-TOC & 7 downloads for TOC) Cleaned up the formatting and added a second file with a TOC page included. Ver. 3 23rd August 2010 (65 downloads for non-TOC & 79 downloads for TOC) Resolve an issue where the title was a bit inconsistant with that of the one on the title page. Ver. 4 18th October 2010 (179 downloads for non-TOC & 217 downloads for TOC) Reformatted entire file so as to make it more compatible with reading systems and for file conversion. Ver. 5 11th September 2011 Updated numerous headings with a great looking font (Agatha). Nice find Jellby, I love it, and it looks very appropriate for Lovercraft. After researching the use of "shew" instead of "show", I've changed to using "shew" where I have found evidence that that was the original spelling. This may lead to having a mix of the use of "shew" & "show" in the same volume, but if the original text is in a particular form, then I think these books of mine should reflect that. I've also updated the declaration page with a slightly modified version of the one that Prestidigitweeze sent me for my Lovecraft fiction volume so that it would also work for this book. (I hope the page makes sense and I haven't screwed it up) Last edited by ghostyjack; 09-10-2011 at 04:23 PM. |

Thanks, I'm currently working on getting his main works out as an epub, so should have them out very soon, then I'll be putting out his poems. So look out for them.

As I've just released another H.P. Lovecraft book I thought it was time to revisit this one.
I've cleaned up the formatting to improve the reading experience and added a second file with a TOC page included in it. Apart from the TOC, there is no difference between the two books. |

Version 4 is now available with completely redone formatting. Most of the changes are non-visible, but will (I hope) make the file a bit more compatible with different reading systems and improve the appearance after converting to a different format.

Fantastic! Thank you!! I hadn't dared to hope any Lovecraft was available in the public domain. This made my day. And will now make for some great nights.
I have a Pandigital Novel and now some pandimensional stories (I don't know how the covers work though). Last edited by Caesius; 12-31-2010 at 01:20 AM. |

Please be careful what you download. Much of this material is NOT in the public domain in the United States, where you are. The uploader is in the UK, so for him the material is in the public domain, but that doesn't automatically mean that it's legal for you to download it.

As a rule of thumb, anything you can find in the Project Gutenberg page (the main, US one) is free of copyright in the US. "Famous" authors or works not found there, but available in PG Canada or PG Australia, are almost surely not public domain in the US.

Hmm, I thought all this volume was in the public domain in the States. Whoops! My mistake, I'll go over the volume and make a sanitised version so that U.S. readers can have a safe book.
