Ernest Favenc (1845-1908) is a neglected master of Australian
supernatural and mystery fiction. Best known for his History of
Australian Exploration, 1788-1888, he was also a prolific author
and journalist, writing for some of the most popular and important
literary journals in colonial Australia. His considerable output is
now largely forgotten, even among aficionados of weird and mystery
fiction. This book collects thirty-one of Favenc's best stories,
many published here for the first time since their original
publication; and aims to showcase Favenc's talent as the most
important Australian colonial writer of Gothic and supernatural
fiction. The stories span the period 1875-1907, and demonstrate the
richness and variety of his art, making this a major publishing
event for enthusiasts of nineteenth-century crime and weird
fiction.
