The Shadow Out of Time | H. P. Lovecraft
Mehso-so

There are valid issues with Lovecraft's personal views which I will not reiterate because they are well documented. This novella is somewhat longer than most of his other works. It has a very interesting premise, but has the major drawback of a slow, dragging, and overly detailed sci-fi element in the middle that seems like it could be about 1/5 the length it is. The beginning and end are mysterious and exciting respectively, and are classic HPL.

I'm in a real Lovecraftian mood these days. So when I get the chance to revisit one of his stories in a different way I jump right in.

DennisJacobRosenfeld @ReadingOver50 I liked the adaptation of the story, but the artwork didn't really do it for me. Unfortunately. 8y
MrBook I thoroughly enjoy Lovecraft. 8y

This is the graphic novel version. The pictures added so much to the story. I really enjoyed reading this. I liked the little nods to Chthulu in some of the artwork.
