The Shadow of Ashlydyat

by Mrs. Henry Wood

THE SHADOW OF ASHLYDYAT.

“‘The Shadow of Ashlydyat’ is very clever, and keeps up the constant interest of the reader. It has a slight supernatural tinge, which gives the romantic touch to the story which Sir Walter Scott so often used with even greater effect; but it is not explained away at the end, as Sir Walter Scott’s supernatural touches generally, and inartistically, were.”—The Spectator.
