Soft cover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. Cover Illstrations by; Murray Tinkelman and Victor Valla (illustrator). The first book in this horror triad, The Case of Charles Dexter Ward, is arguably one of the best of Lovecrafts horror stories and this copy was part of the 1971 Ballantine/ Beagle/ Boxer Books boxed set of five Lovecraft titles. The second book, Tales of the Cthulhu Mythos (Vol 1) with stories by Clark Ashton Smith, Robert Bloch, J. Vernon Shea, Frank Belknap Long, to name a few; was part of a two volume anthology; edited by August Derleth and was also released in 1971, with mind bending covers by Victor Valla. The final book in this horror triad is The Mask of Cthulhu; which, for all intensive purposes, represents a postscript in tribute to the creative imagination of H.P. Lovecraft. It includes the following stories (all by Derleth); Return of Hastur (started by Lovecraft before his death); The Whippoorwills in the Hills; Something in Wood; the Sandwin Compact; the House in the Valley; The Seal of R'Lyeh. These are all collectable paperbacks with one of a kind cover art and belong in the collection of any horror fan. Difficult to find at this price. For the most part, in good condition; two have water/food stains on back cover, all have browning pages (not brittle), and dinged corners. Bindings are square and tight with creases.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The Invasion of Marcia Lake purports to be a fable that is told to a Naturalist from the United Kingdom who, nearly at the same time, chances upon two life-altering discoveries. The first is finding the whereabouts of the definitive ancient Volume on Taxonomy, "The Taxonomic Compendium of Eighteen Thirty-five", a huge tome, illustrated with hundreds of line engravings, and containing the most complete listings of all known Science pertaining to Nature from that time period. The second is that he soon meets and is able to speak with a group representing Nature and its many dozens of different species. The T.C. of 1835 is in the hands of a Naturalist living on a houseboat in Florida, who has contacted our narrator-translator in the "Scilly Isles", a man who is himself a famous Scientist/ Naturalist/ Linguist named Dr. Carlton Lyme, of Cornwall, England. He is related to both Charles Darwin and Carl Linneaus, and he arrives in the States to review the authenticity of the T.C. of 1835.While there, he explores the wildlife in the nearby swampy marshland by rowboat, (he is at heart a Naturalist), and makes the startling discovery that his linguistic research specialty, that of the ancient Cornish language is spoken by a Community of Inhabitants, as he refers to them.
