The Assaults of Chaos: A novel about H. P. Lovecraft by S. T. Joshi

I came across a reference to this novel on The Vault of Evil. Despite the fact that it was given one four-star and one one-star review on amazon, I was so intrigued by it that I found a copy from a reliable British bookseller on Abebooks and ordered it. The one-star review could very easily have been written by someone with a grudge against Joshi, something which wouldn't surprise me at all, taking into account Joshi's often outspoken views on Lovecraft and other authors.

Anyway, I'll see for myself how good or bad this novel is and write a review which, hopefully, will be included in a future issue of Phantasmagoria magazine.
