A dark, dazzling adaptation of H. P. Lovecraft's best-known tale is
back in print
"For a second we gasped in admiration . . . and then vague horror began
to creep into our souls." September 1930. A scientific expedition
embarks for the frozen wasteland of Antarctica. But the secrets they
unearth there reveal a past almost beyond human comprehension--and a
future too terrible to imagine. By taking scientific fact so seriously,
At the Mountains of Madness (1936), H.P. Lovecraft's classic take on
the "heroic age" of polar exploration, helped to define a new era in
20th-century science-fiction.
