Reference within a reference... within another reference!

Can't wait really

I have literally everything ever published by him (including something he wrote in elementary school or something) on my Kindl.
I'll by a proper book later on.

But tbqh, I really enjoy the audio narrations of his stories.
They give you that perfect old timey "horror radio show" feel.
So you can enjoy it twice.

I read his complete works at age 16, was tired of seeing references to it by age 18.
>Why vote for the lesser evil?
Fuck off already.

Yeah, the references get a bit much.
I guess building a fictional mythos/universe will always invite nerdish fandom.

The B&N edition has a lot of typos.

I have some issues with this edition. The outside of the slipcase is definitely a bit garish, but the spine looks alright when it's on your shelf. The copy I purchased from Chapters had a piece of paper glued to the back with the barcode and author blurbs, and it looks a lot better when that is removed.

My main issue is that it's a pretty large volume, and the quality is pretty low. It has a glued binding, and the text block on my edition has already sagged considerably after a year. The paper stock is a little flimsy and it's not on archival quality paper, so don't expect the book to last, even just sitting on your shelf.

Franklin Library and the Folio Society both have nicer past editions that you can find on the used market for less than this edition costs new.

i have that exact book, read 90 percent of it, the only regret being charles dexter ward.
