Thanks to the people at Penguin, I'm giving away one pack (containing both books) to one lucky reader. 'One lucky reader'... I actually should have said 'one lucky US reader', this competition is only open to people living in the US. Sorry about that everyone else.
If you're still with me then the odds are that you already know what to do next, Drop me an email (address at the top right hand of the screen) telling me who you are and what your postal address is. The subject header needs to be 'Weird Horror'. Entering more than once is a guaranteed way of getting all your entries deleted so don't do it!
I'll be leaving this one open until the 30th of October and will aim to announce the winner as soon as possible afterwards.
Good Luck!

Lovecraft is also an author I have wanted to read but never got round to.
Unfortunately I can't eneter the competition, but it has made me bump the books up the reading list a bit.
The Case of Charles Dexter Ward is my favorite Lovecraft story. That would probably be a good place to start if you have never read him before.
Fun fact: Lovecraft invented a fictional town called Arkham Mass. which Bob Kane used the name for the now more familiar Arkham Asylum in Batman.
Have you ever thought of making a grab button for your blog that other bloggers can grab and put on their blog? Just wondering cause I follow your posts and next time I did a "check out this blogger" sort of post I wanted to point people your way - course usually having a graphic to go along with it is kind of nice.
"Charles Dexter Ward" is a good suggestion for someone's first Lovecraft. I would also suggest "Shadow over Innsmouth." However, the famous "Call of Cthulhu" is probably a little faster paced than either, and maybe thus more newbie-friendly.
