About this audiobook
In "From Beyond", a maniacal scientist develops an extraordinary machine which enables humans to tap in to a range of additional senses which allow him to perceive whole new dimensions of the cosmos.
But that ability brings with it a vulnerability to unknown and malignant forces which exist 'beyond' but which now equally have access to our world. As the monsters 'from beyond' close in, there is only one way to escape....
H.P. Lovecraft
Renowned as one of the great horror-writers of all time, H.P. Lovecraft was born in 1890 and lived most of his life in Providence, Rhode Island. Among his many classic horror stories, many of which were published in book form only after his death in 1937, are ‘At the Mountains of Madness and Other Novels of Terror’ (1964), ‘Dagon and Other Macabre Tales’ (1965), and ‘The Horror in the Museum and Other Revisions’ (1970).

- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Cannot stand this narrator. Almost sing song which is irritating when someone tries to raise the pitch at the end of every sentence. It’s like she’s constantly asking a question. Ugh!!!
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5The concept of this story has five authors write one chapter each. Each of the authors has their own distinctive style, and so the story is a little uneven, but a lot fun to read. Each of the authors were masters of their craft in their day and I just wonder what a book written in the same format by today’s authors (King, Rowling, etc) would be like.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Several writers contribute towards this supernatural short story. Robert E. Howard's involvement is unfortunately minimal. I suspect the tale would've been much more upbeat had he been more apparent. Lovecraft's section proved especially tedious in this monotonous yarn about a man being transported to another world via a cube he discovers.There are some clever elements towards the end, hence my rating the piece 2 stars instead on 1, but overall I found this too slow-paced and mundane.
