The Complete Works of Lovecraft eBook Now in PDF

I've created a free eBook of Lovecraft's fiction which you can download as ePub, as PDF, or for Kindle. Learn more.

Donate! Over 750,000 people have downloaded the ebook. If you enjoyed the book, why not give Lovecraft real nightmares by donating $5 (or more!) to the Equal Justice Initiative? Or send $5 to a local group doing the work of Black liberation.

A while back, I released a complete works of H.P. Lovecraft eBook in EPUB and Kindle formats. While that works for most people, some had asked for a PDF copy for their computers or other devices. Creating the PDF wasn't a priority (the stories are all available online and the two version I've created can be read on nearly every device, including computers), but it was still something I wanted to get around to. So last weekend, I got it put together.

You can download the PDF here. I've set it as a download vs. opening in a browser because it's a large enough file that it may slow down your browser while loading. The text is the same as the other ebooks. It has a linked table of contents and “Return to Table of Contents” links following each story.

If you have an e-Reader or want to read it on your smartphone, I strongly recommend downloading the EPUB or the MOBI versions instead. The formatting looks fine on a computer and would probably look fine on a tablet, but PDFs simply don't look as good on e-Readers/phones as EPUBs/MOBIs do. Since the file is about 6x as large as the other ebooks, this also puts more strain on my server. I'm hoping that won't be an issue—otherwise I'll have to host the download elsewhere.

As with the other eBook, this is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 3.0 Unported (CC BY-NC 3.0) (a formalization of the request I initially made, merely putting it into legal terms). The book may be redistributed, torn apart, revised, etc, but please do not sell it. Uploading on your own site for download is fine. If you choose to share or redistribute the book, please give credit to arkhamarchivist.com. Basically, you can do anything with it but sell it.

Hope you enjoy!
