Review: The Case of Charles Dexter Ward

The Case of Charles Dexter Ward by H.P. Lovecraft
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Although less 'cosmic horror' as some of his other works, The Case of Charles Dexter Ward is a great example of Lovecraft's work.
It follows the finding of Charles Dexter Ward and the inconceivable repercussions of those findings.
(view spoiler)[Ward's downfall at the hands of his cunning and insidious ancestor that he brings back from the grave leading to his untimely demise is one of the best plots I've read in a long while. (hide spoiler)]
I would highly recommend that this would be a great place to start for anyone looking to get into Lovecraftian fiction.
