'Reading Robert Aickman is like watching a magician work, and very
often I'm not even sure what the trick was. All I know is that he
did it beautifully.' Neil Gaiman For fans of the BBC's Inside
Number 9 and The League of Gentlemen Aickman's 'strange stories'
(his preferred term) are constructed immaculately, the neuroses of
his characters painted in subtle shades. He builds dread by the
steady accrual of realistic detail, until the reader realises that
the protagonist is heading towards their doom as if in a dream. The
Unsettled Dust was first published as a collection in 1990. Aickman
received the British Fantasy Award for 'The Stains'. 'We are all
potential victims of the powers Aickman so skilfully conjures and
commands.' Robert Bloch
