I can only guess and speculate, and I'd say that it is
unlikely that space would be wasted on anything written before "The Beast in the Cave". HPL's childish attempts at fiction are charming and interesting in their own right, but good reading...?
As for fragments such as "Azathoth", my guess is that they will be included.
I suppose I could ask S. T., but at the same time I'm unwilling to find out. I want
some surprise left.

If so - and with that second volume you speak of containing all the revisions and collaborations - we'd have all of HPL's creative writings contained within just three large tomes (along with The Ancient Track).

That would certainly be great. We shall have to wait and see what happens. My guess is that IF the revisions volume happens, it still has some years to go before it appears. But I'm patient. I've waited for Richard Tierney's
Drums of Chaos since 1994, and with this book, I already have all the texts.

P.S.: I am assuming this B&N volume would be in the line of their other omnibus editions, such as this of Poe that I have: [can't post links, unfortunately, so go to bn.com and search for ISBN 9780760782217].

It sure looks nice! I have B&N's reprint of De Camp's HPL biography -- decent quality.
