Writers similar to....?

As for Lovecraft you may well like the stories of his contemporaries Clark Ashton Smith and Robert H. Barlow. If you like Lovecraft's early stories then the work of Lord Dunsany, and perhaps even Meryn Peake's Gormenghast books? Maybe even some H.G. Wells and some R.E. Howard? There are legions of post-Lovecraft writers who try to imitate his style and elaborate on his mythos.
