At the Mountains of Madness

Average rating3.8
Great story, a bit slow, but the pay-off is rewarding. Characteristic of Lovecraft, highly atmospheric writing, but the visuals it paints in your mind are grand and eerie. The last few chapters is where it gets really interesting, and more exciting in the vein of adventure, rather than just descriptions and ramblings of geology and architecture. There are parts where Lovecraft deadass uses coordinates, all spelled with latitudes and longitudes, to describe a location. Talk about detailed.
