Descent Into Egypt by Algernon Blackwood Chapters 1-3

8 months ago

Egypt in the early 20th Century just before the time of the discovery of the tomb of Tutankhamun. A man meets an old friend in an unfashionable Egyptian hotel. This man has begun excavating and it seems to be having a strange effect on him.

If you know Blackwood, you may know that some of his longer stories and novellas (The Man Whom The Trees Loved, The Centaur) can be quite slow and brooding and hint at impersonal, inhuman forces affecting those who go too deep into them, rather than thrusting monsters in your face.

This is one of those.

This story was requested by a Patreon.

I am back now and able (I hope to do the novels and novellas on a Monday for those special few who like them!)
