Edward John Moreton Drax Plunkett (1878-1957), eighteenth baron of Dunsany, commonly known as Lord Dunsany, was an Anglo-Irish author who published more than 80 books during his lifetime, including hundreds of short stories, as well as plays, novels, and essays. In 1927, he published his fourth novel, The Blessing of Pan, a bewitching pastoral fantasy of mythic grandeur in which the quiet English village of Wolding slowly succumbs, one by one, to an ancient allure stirred by the mysterious music of young Tommy Duffin's reed pipes. As Reverend Elderick Anwrel watches his flock slowly drift into fevered abandon, the line between innocent whimsy and dark seduction blurs, revealing a spiritual conflict far deeper than he first imagined: this isn't just a descent into pagan revelry - it's a metaphysical siege - and the final soul claimed may be the one sworn to resist it.
