I've order the Simon Necronomicon from amazon a few days ago, after reading the Call of Cthulhu and exploring the Lovecraft universe. I wanted to know... what should i expect to find within it? The Mad Arab's story? The spells? Im just curious, because i haven't managed to get much info about it.

Well it's ok, i do dig those creepy spells anyway and there is a small story on the mad arab. We'll see how it turns out to be.

I've just gotten a pair of books to start off; Necronomicon: The Best Weird Tales http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0575081570/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00 Eldritch Tales: A Miscellany of the Macabre http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0575099356/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i01 Im planning on stepping into Poe's works after i finish with this books. Is there any other resource that is worth getting in regard of HP Lovecraft?

Ornamented Death posted:It sounds like those two collect pretty much all of his fiction and poetry, so you should be good to go. The only other thing I can think of is The Horror in the Museum, which collects stories Lovecraft edited and revised for other people. His level of involvement varies from simple edits to basically re-writing everything. I'm not sure if the stories in here are included in the two volumes you bought, but generally speaking these stories are kept separate from the main body of Lovecraft's work. Perfect then i'll get back to reading!
