HP Lovecraft
Any chance we could get any of HP Lovecrafts works on here?
Been meaning to read them again for ages!
I don't think they're still copyrighted, either - but don't quote me on that.
Cheers.

We will try! Any particular titles you'd like to see?

Hmm...
The Mountains of Madness & The Dreamquest of Unknown Kadath seem enticing :)

This discussion pops up every so often on the forums. The copyright of all Lovecraft's work after 1923 is still contested in the US (where I believe this site is based).
However, most of his stories are available to read here (which is an Australian site) and therefore not liable to the same copyright laws:

I recommend HPL's short fiction over his longer works. I'm reading At the Mountains of Madness at the moment (can't believe I never read it before now) and it's kinda slow going.

I'd love to see any and all of Lovecraft's works, as well as other, similar works by his friends and contemporaries. I hate it when it's time to give them back to my public library!
