They put commercials in their book.

No, seriously. They have commercials between chapters. This is the single most obnoxious thing I’ve found on this site. Don’t reward this.

I was entertained by most of its runtime, but very disappointed towards the end. Be warned?

Interesting writing, sleep-inducing narration.

They're fun stories, but the performance sounds like somebody reading an essay out loud in the flattest tone possible, and makes the language seem plain and simplistic even when it's not.

Better at 1.5 speed

Story gets a little confusing with the shifting perspectives, but is extraordinarily well written. The author/narrator talks very very slowly to the point where it’s distracting, but it works out okay at 1.3 to 1.5 speed.

Great to finally know what all the fuss is about.

H. P. Lovecraft is a weird guy. Scared of everything and cringingly racist, but his slow and descriptive language is fun to fall into, and the narrators do a fantastic job. A lot of his ideas have survived and been improved upon in later fiction, and it's nice to finally be familiar with the source of so many well-used sci-fi horror tropes. The stories themselves are alright; some are really good and some are pretty pedestrian, but as a collection of culturally significant artifacts, this collection is definitely worth a listen. You might not like him as a person much after you've actually heard all of his words, but you'll understand the nods to him in more popular fiction a lot better.

All of the narrators are perfectly competent, but some chapters are narrated fully by one man while others have a full voice cast coming in to play different characters that just a few seconds before were voiced by the narrator. It seems to be totally at random and it’s hugely distracting, to the point where it’s difficult to track when two different events were actually written to involve the same character. I have no idea what the reasoning was for this, but it sabotages continuity through the whole thing.
