Incredible Adventures (short story collection)

  • Type: Short Story Collection

Incredible Adventures is a 1914 collection of four novellas and a short story by speculative fiction author Algernon Blackwood. - AsNotedIn

the premier weird collection of this or any other century
S T Joshi, The Weird Tale (University of Texas Press, 1990),

In the volume titled Incredible Adventures occur some of the finest tales which the author has yet produced, leading the fancy to wild rites on nocturnal hills, to secret and terrible aspects lurking behind stolid scenes, and to unimaginable vaults of mystery below the sands and pyramids of Egypt; all with a serious finesse and delicacy that convince where a cruder or lighter treatment would merely amuse. Some of these accounts are hardly stories at all, but rather studies in elusive impressions and half-remembered snatches of dream. Plot is everywhere negligible, and atmosphere reigns untrammelled.
