Überraschend gut
Lovecraft war mir zwar ein Begriff, allerdings habe ich bisher noch kein Werk von ihm gelesen. Da gibt's definitiv Nachholbedarf. Die Sprache hat mir unglaublich gut gefallen. Die Geschichte hat schon einige düstere Momente, auch wenn ich einfach kein Fan von Außerirdischen bin. Die konnten mich bisher weder in Büchern, noch Filmen begeistern (abgesehen von Alf). Aber, auch wenn mich die Thematik nicht ganz abholt, so ist die Umsetzung einfach nur großartig. Ich bin sehr gespannt, was Lovecraft noch so geschrieben hat.
