At the Mountains of Madness is a novella by H.P. Lovecraft, an American writer of "e;cosmic"e; horror, fantasy and sci-fi, particularly in the subgenre known as "e;weird fiction."e; Weird fiction incorporated the supernatural, mythical, and scientific into a unique form which predated "e;niche"e; genre fiction. This story, which was originally serialized in 1936, features the "e;de-mythology"e; of the Cthulhu mythos, which describe ancient extra-dimensional beings whose powers are vast and terrifying. It is told from the perspective of William Dyer, a geologist and professor at Miskatonic University. His manuscript reveals the horrible secrets of "e;The Old Ones"e; in an attempt to deter a highly-publicized expedition to Antarctica. Lovecraft´s brilliance as a horror writer lies in his defiance of the old standards of ghosts, vampires, and werewolves. It´s the peripheral description of his creatures, rather, whose powers are almost unimaginable, that leave the reader with a cosmic, spiritual and intellectual sense of doom.
