Editorial Reviews

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"

3.0 out of 5 stars Charming Novel that Challenges the Way We View the World
Reviewed in the United States on July 19, 2013
Algernon Blackwood's tale is about three children growing up in the Old Mill House in the Victorian era. When their Uncle Felix comes to visit, his magical storytelling and patience with the children impacts their lives significantly.

There is a great deal of foreshadowing that a great surprise is coming with a great revelation. For instance, Uncle Felix says, "Time always prevents, doesn't it? If only we could make it stop--get behind time, as it were--we might have a chance. Some day, perhaps, we shall." Uncle Felix challenges the children to talk to the night wind and ask it for answers. He brings an innocent charm to their lives reminiscent of his more famous work "The Centaur" but not quite as epic.

Although this book was not necessarily written for children, it would be a great book to read to kids. It reminds all of us not to miss the wonder in God's creation.

If you're looking for a thrill then avoid, it's not at all like his super nature/natural books BUT if you like Edwardian charm a la Secret Garden, then it'll be up your street

5.0 out of 5 stars For lazy afternoons
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 5, 2014

I had an idyllic childhood, but if you asked me to recount specific events or moments to confirm this, I would struggle. It's all too hazy and unreachable now, I just know I did, that's all. Luckily, Algernon Blackwood does remember. Every turn of the storybook page, every lazy afternoon on the lawn. The Extra Day makes you stop, think and appreciate. It's certainly not the Blackwood book to start with, but make sure you get to it at some point.
