Dr. John Silence is a “Physician Extraordinary” and the world’s premier occult detective, returning to England after years of mysterious, grueling training. In this collection of visionary weird fiction, Silence is called to investigate cases that defy conventional logic: from a traveler ensnared by feline, pagan magic in a remote French village to battles with ancient Egyptian fire spirits and explorations of geometry-defying alternate dimensions.

Algernon Blackwood (1869 - 1951) was one of the most influential horror writers of the twentieth century. Transcending the boundaries of conventional writing in the genre, his tales are celebrated for their atmospheric descriptions, psychological depth, and their deep interest in phenomena outside of conventional human experience. A lover of nature, his writing is imbued with a mysticism and awe f or his surroundings, and much of his work is concerned with the beauty and terror to be found in moutainscapes and dark forests. Blackwood's influence extends beyond horror literature, inspiring authors across various genres and with his evocative storytelling and philosophical insight.
