As far as I can tell, the grammatical errors and missing punctuations that other reviewers speak of are limited to the first 4 stories. There may be other errors further on, but if so, they are few and far between. It is a good collection at a good price, containing very many difficult-to-find works. I must, however, rate it at 4 stars because of a minor issue of Lovecraft's style. He is, quite often, rather vague. This could be meant to allow readers to conjure up their own ideas, fill in the gaps themselves, but sometimes he fails to provide even a spark to fire the imagination. If you enjoy Lovecraft, this is the collection to own.

do not pay attention to the reviews complaining about spelling mistakes. the book is arranged so the stories are presented in to when they were written. the first stories then are from when lovecraft was younger and he himself did the spelling errors. they were most likely left in to this edition because as far as I am aware, it is illegal to change the way he wrote them. only the first few stories presented contain errors. i would highly recommend this edition. to complain about the mistakes would be as silly as criticizing Lovecraft for writing when he was a child.

As stated by other reviewers the grammatical and other errors in the first few stories are there intentionally. They were transcribed as written. This collection is worth much more than the cost. you should freakin buy it. Take no heed to the one star nonsense reviews.
