I am torn as to whether this book is spectacular, or flawed in a single regard. This book focuses upon the life of the author H. P. Lovecraft in its entirety. This is immensely enjoyable as most often, anything regarding Lovecraft has been strictly about his stories and characters rather than his life. This book focused upon Lovecraft's upbringing, his childhood, his family's history, and other such interesting bits of back story such as his frequent nightmares which the author tied into the the book as an explanation for the stories which Lovecraft would write. However, while the author corrected the dearth of information about Lovecraft's own life, he neglected any mention of the stories themselves to tie these childhood and life experiences into. Had he provided more, and more significant, examples of these weird and macabre stories to tie Lovecraft's life into, then there would have been a more complete rendering of his life and works. Still, the focus upon Lovecraft's life was welcome.
I would recommend this to High School students to read, in part because they would be more aware of the works in question than younger students. ( )

The subject matter in this book would be more than younger readers could handle content wise. Chances are that elementary students will not know of H.P. Lovecraft or his writings, so it's best that his literature is best left for much older readers. ( )

A pretty solid if rather short biography of Lovecraft. No real complaints, but I suspect it would suffer in comparison to the better known biographies by de Camp and Joshi. Still, I would recommend it to anyone looking for a quick, objective bio of HPL. ( )
