Fall is a great time to dive into tales of the supernatural, and what's more supernatural than your local fair folk, hm? Well, don't get me wrong here, fall's just the best time, I can enjoy a wild tale of a man who's on a journey to see and hear things far beyond what he ought to be experiencing any time! That makes this particular story a great fit for the moment both you, me, and past-me who recorded it, at least, if you ask me. I gotta admit, I'm curious about M.R. James' other work after how much I really enjoyed this one. There's a fantastic story being woven here, one of a man dragged through a whole set of worlds with which he's thoroughly unfamililar. Sure, sure, we've been hammering home that theme a lot with the recent episodes, but this one does it in a way that's fascinatingly different, done more in a fashion akin to modern tales of fantasy "isekai" rather than the more straightforward science fiction planet-hopper.
