Well, there aren't a lot of differences, which is why I suggest seeing if you can get a library copy first. A piece by J. Vernon Shea, "The Haunter of the Graveyard", which I personally found annoying the first time 'round, though I've come to quite like it since; "The Sister City" and "Cement Surroundings" were the offerings by Brian Lumley, which were each incorporated into later novels of his, and were replaced by "Rising with Surtsey"(?) as I recall; and a piece by James Wade, "The Deep Ones", which has remained a personal favorite as it brought Lovecraft's mythology into the 'Sixties counterculture and scientific experimentation in some interesting ways, I thought. I believe those were the only differences, though I'd have to dig out my copies of both to recheck.... |
