Reactions:

 
“I noticed that this magnificent anthology has garned a few poor reviews. Having read it, I can see way. It may not be an entertaining collection for casual or half-hearted readers. If Lovecraft had a chance to review these translated passages, he might concur. The uninitiated should find these pages difficult, but the genuine fan will detect the clever nuggets of wit, rather pokerfaced, and many will pass right by them. A solid, colorful book.” – Chazdexward

“This collection offers the reader a very mixed bag. Pulling off an anthology like this is extremely difficult because the stories threaten to be repetitious, tedious, or both. The stories are remarkably varied; Price has taken a good cross-section of stories about the Necronomicon and has avoided the repetition problem for the most part. The strength of this collection indeed lies in its variety.” – Peter F. Guenther

“I am a mythos fan and bought this book because I am. Some of the reading is difficult but for the most part I am happy that I did buy it. The stories are good but as others have said predictable. I would suggest this book for any fan of the mythos or the Necronomicon.” – Lovecraft Girl Yvie

“With interesting stories, John Dee’s version of The Necronomicon itself, and even H.P. Lovecraft’s own essay concerning The Necronomicon, this makes a great read for anyone that might be a believer in The Necronomicon, a Cthulhu Mythos addict, or just an ordinary fan of horror stories.” – Michael Patrick Norton

“This book, altough I really liked it, just didn’t have the spark “necronomicon” had. I really like the setting and mood of this book, I found it more of a fantasy meditation than a reality check. If you are into this sort of thing, I would really recommend this book.” – A Customer
