The King in Yellow by R.W. Chambers

Decided I needed to read this book after I caught wind of it not that long ago. A highly regarded paranormal novel from the late 1890's that inspired Lovecraft, Heinlein, Howard etc.? Okay cool, let's do this.

It starts off very strong and I really dug the first half of the book. It's really strange and mysterious. Then I don't know what happened. The last few stories are basically just little romances set in Paris. I don't get it.
