Hodgson, in the company of Algernon Blackwood, Bram Stoker, H.P. Lovecraft, M.R. James, Edgar Allan Poe, Arthur Machen, Arthur Conan Doyle and many other fine and distinguished authors of the late Victorian era, created the foundations of the modern short story, the weird, the dark and the delightful, the supernatural and the fantastic and the imaginative. This new collection of Hodgson's tales highlights his sinuous storytelling prowess, and range and depth of his wonderful work.
