@Nathan: I agree 140% percent. I wish Night Shade Books would return some of their focus to this sort of thing too!

It's too bad Night Shade seems to have shifted almost entirely away from this stuff. Their Hodgson, Wellman, Smith, etc were nice sets.

Good point! A lot of his work is available via Project Gutenberg. I hope you liked The Boats of the Glen Carrig

Don't forget, much of Hodgson's output is freely available in various electronic forms. I just finished Boats of Glen Carrig, myself, having been led into Hodgson's nautical stories via reading "The Voice in the Night" in some old weird fiction anthology (Creepies, Creepies, Creepies). Next up, Hodgson's collection Men of the Deep Waters, which was also free.

I am very much looking forward to more Hodgson. I recently acquired the second volume of his collected fiction and I can't wait!

It's great to be back in one form or another. I doubt the reviews here will be as frequent or regular as they were in the past but that's alright, I guess.

First of all, welcome back Ben. Good to see you back reviewing and especially with such an insightful piece.

I suspect you will find even more delights in Hodgson, wait till you get to the psychedelic pigs period. After you've finished with him I hope you move onto Blackwood and Machen. I envy you, you have some delights in store :-)

I mean, I knew he was out there, but I had no idea how great his work was!

Glad to see you liked Hodgson! He's one of my very favorite of the pre-Weird Tales weird authors, though I've still not read nearly all of his output.
