Uncle Felix visits three children who live in an Old Mill House. They always enjoy his magical tales and he has a particular influence upon their lives and growing-up. He challenges the children to think laterally and to question what they see and do, especially when out in the countryside, but always with a mystical air. Could they gain an answer from the night wind as it passes, or make time stop? The novel chronicles a miraculous adventure across the English countryside, where no grown-up rules apply, where magic is real, and wonder is everywhere. Written for adults, this work is equally suitable for children.
Chiefly known for his ghost stories, Blackwood wrote in many different forms within the genre. His most personal works, however, are his 'mystical' novels, for example The Centaur, where he explores man's empathy with the forces of the universe. Blackwood also wrote children's fiction. A Prisoner in Fairyland was adapted into the play (later the musical), Starlight Express.
Later in life, Blackwood turned to writing radio plays, and in 1947 he began a new career on BBC TV telling ghost stories. He received a knighthood in 1949.
