Ancient Sorceries and Other Tales — Algernon Blackwood

Dr John Silence, Algernon Blackwood's psychic detective, confronts strange and frightening extrasensory phenomena. His cases here include the nocturnal cat-people of a French village and a tale of Egyptian reincarnation. The settings range from the vast wilderness of the mountains to the Canadian backwoods, and in each story fear and tension mount. These are finely-wrought tales of horror from the master of the supernatural.
