About the Author Algernon Henry Blackwood, CBE (14 March 1869 – 10 December 1951) was an English short story writer and novelist, one of the most prolific writers of ghost stories in the history of the genre. He was also a journalist and a broadcasting narrator. S. T. Joshi has stated that "his work is more consistently meritorious than any weird writer's except Dunsany's" and that his short story collection Incredible Adventures (1914) "may be the premier weird collection of this or any other century".

I SIMPSON As a recent purchaser of a Kindle, I naturally wanted some content, but felt somewhat bewhildered by the vast range of pricing--from free to relatively expensive--for what appeared to be identical works. In order to test the "free" works, I decided to download Algernon Blackwood's short novel, "The Willows," fully cognizant of the old adage that one gets what one pays for.Well, the edition here is superb. No misspellings or misplaced punctuation that I saw; the only flaws were a handful of missing paragraph indentations, and they did not interfere with the flow of the story. I heartily commend those who took the time to transcribe this story for their excellent work.As for the story itself, it remains a very unnerving read. Like Lovecraft, Blackwood spends most of the time building up a near palpable atmosphere of dread, with only a few fitful sightings to give shape to that dread. "The Willows" remains one of his best tales, and this edition is highly recommended.
6 of 6 people found the following review helpful. Outstanding Horror from an Underappreciated Master By Athena Writer 77 Before there was Stephen King, Alergnon Blackwood and H.P. Lovecraft inherited the mantle of E.A. Poe. Blackwood writes of the woodland spirits, his story "The WIllows" is haunting and beautifully written and conceived, ghostly and enigmatic in tone. His story of "THe Wendigo" about the Canadian "bigfoot" is rendered in realistic prose yet there is an aura of myth shot throughout. Blackwood does not summon demons and conjure cosmic wrolds like Lovecraft. Rather, Blackwood is the Thoreau of Horror, summoning the natural world and its beauty and power and hidden forces, creating a world steeped in reality and myth at once. Amazing writing and superb storytelling make A.B. a real treasure not to missed for all fans of horror fiction.
8 of 9 people found the following review helpful. Old Fashioned Lovecraftian Horror By Jill M. Heins This is a wonderful horror story--the tale of two men travelling through Europe (down the Danube River, then the Carpathian mountains). When they pass ancient forests and peasants who warn them to beware of the little-inhabited regions, they attribute their warnings to ancient superstition and continue. Blackwood's old fashioned writing style is a bit H.P. Lovecraftian, such as this phrase, "I searched everywhere for a proof of reality, when all the while I understood quite well that the standard of reality had changed."
