I would steer clear of the 'dreamlands' stuff though unless you are a fan of the Dunsanian style of the fantastic. Shadow Over Innsmouth is probably his best next to The Call of Cthulhu itself.<br /><br />There is even, I kid you not, a Kickstarter for a Cthulhu Mythos RPG whose authors specifically say they have designed it to be SJW-friendly because Lovecraft was such a dreeadful old racist ninety fucking years ago - not stopping them trying to make money of his legacy though, is it?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07183522649960629437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627081175329856970.post-1832574686850683782015-11-21T20:56:02.281+00:002015-11-21T20:56:02.281+00:00The days of ripping yarns set in mysterious worlds...The days of ripping yarns set in mysterious worlds peopled by Conans and Red Sonjas are gone. Contemporary writers of SF&F seem to be mostly women, wading through the PC can be annoying although sometimes it's worth it. My Moorcock collection gets frequent re-readings, that's proper writing with short words, short sentences, and loads of magic swords and such. I wonder if Rupert the Bear still has friends such as the pickininny girl,complete with ribbons in her peppercorns. I am taking my Gollywog to bed with me tonight while I read a Biggles book. I have got a Lovecraft book lurking around the house somewhere, time to see what all the fuss is about.Andyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04672200681678804614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627081175329856970.post-25778614579199220512015-11-21T19:32:27.124+00:002015-11-21T19:32:27.124+00:00Lovecraft was a great fantasy/horror writer.

Some of his stories I really found unsettling when I first encountered them, especially "The Haunter of the Dark".<br /><br />As you say, these SJWs will be forgotten while he will continue to be revered.

There are very few SF or F writers of today that are worth reading because they are all stuck in the social mud and navel gazing rather than looking to the future possibilities of where technology could take mankind.<br /><br />It would appear the film 'Idiocracy' is looking much more like prophecy than entertainment. ivannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627081175329856970.post-3211023890598653182015-11-21T14:57:55.415+00:002015-11-21T14:57:55.415+00:00Oh, FFS!!
