Mention of the Department for Extra-Usual Affairs tale "Death Knock" in a review of Pantechnicon issue 7 over at sfcrowsnest.com:

David Barnett creates an entertaining British version of 'The X-Files' in 'Death Knock'. The pair of characters who work at the Department for Extra-Usual Affairs are briefly sketched but give the impression of having been carefully crafted. There are plenty of references to strange things outside the story that give it a nice rounded feel. The story itself, of a newspaper reporter who turns up after he's supposed to be dead, is a gentle and pleasant episode that reaches a satisfying conclusion.
