Pretty good! No overt racism, so good on ya Lovecraft, but vaguely prejudice against the Dutch??? Ah well, baby steps.

Lovecraft does have this weird fascination with breeding and lineages that can be a somewhat alien concept to modern readers. A number of his monsters come about because someone fucked a fish person, a tentacled entity, or their own cousin. Gives a somewhat interesting look into the man's mindset.

I do really enjoy the mystery that the Lurking Fear presents and how all the clues eventually make sense once the big reveal comes about. That being said, I do feel this suffers from one of his common pitfalls of being extremely long and wordy for the sake of being long and wordy, but what can ya do.

Give this one a read for sure.
