At the Mountains of Madness
ByPublisher Description
Introduction by China Miéville

Lovecraft established the genuineness and dignity of his own pioneering fiction in 1931 with his quintessential work of supernatural horror, At the Mountains of Madness. The deliberately told and increasingly chilling recollection of an Antarctic expedition’s uncanny discoveries–and their encounter with untold menace in the ruins of a lost civilization–is a milestone of macabre literature.
This exclusive new edition, presents Lovecraft’s masterpiece in fully restored form, and includes his acclaimed scholarly essay “Supernatural Horror in Literature.” This is essential reading for every devotee of classic terror.

“So what i get from this is:
Basically and man embarks on a trip to Antarctica with scientists and uncovers the remains of an ancient alien civilization, along with the mutilated bodies of team members, and is pursued by alien creatures. Despite this thrilling discovery, the man is more focused on detailing the frozen, mountainous, and eerie landscape described by someone named Roerich, refusing to discuss the gruesome events. he ignore the bodies and that an alien chase him, and instead keeps describing and admiring the landscape's features and how they change with the light at specific times.
Bro by the end of this i was uninterested in the grand revelations in Antarctica, and the history of the alien civilization the book claims to have deciphered quickly from wall pictographs. Instead of building suspense, the writing left me feeling frustrated and unsatisfied, as it feels like I’ve been kept in the dark and teased throughout the narrative.”
