According to Grady Hendrix in Paperbacks from Hell, "Wheatley was a deeply conservative snob who feared Britain would become a socialist state after his death." However, he was also "The great British horror author of the '30s, '40s, and '50s, selling a million copies every year" (p. 233). His Library of the Occult was assembled three years before his death.

William Hope Hodgson's Carnacki is an extremely unusual detective. Where other sleuths specialise in tracking down villains in this world, Carnacki's talent is for combat with the evil, unearthly forces of the Outside. In this volume the reader can join him on nine chilling supernatural hunts into the icy realms of otherworldly horror...
