Jack London's Horror, Science Fiction and Other Stories ...

Jack London?s Horror, Science Fiction and Other Stories (interactive table of contents)

Jack London is best known for his adventure stories set in the wilds of Alaska and the Yukon. However, he was a varied and prolific author, and his works include stories of horror, science fiction, socialist fiction, philosophical pieces and other material. This volume attempts to be a complete collection of his ?other works?, and is great for both Jack London fans and those simply looking for a good, classic read.

Jack London?s Horror, Science Fiction and Other Stories features 68 tales. The most notable ones include:

The Red One (1918) ? A story of extraterrestrial visitation, set in the jungles of the South Pacific.
A Thousand Deaths (1898) ? A science fiction story; the first story Jack London was ever paid for.
A Piece of Steak (1911) ? The powerful tale of an aging prize-fighter in New South Wales.
The Unparalleled Invasion (1914) ? A speculative (and racist) account of a future war between the West and China.
The First Poet (1916) ? A satirical play commenting on the status of the artist in society, set in the Stone Age.

And many, many others!

This edition was NOT merely scanned from an ink-and-paper book, like many Kindle e-books are. All e-books offered by Di Lernia Publishers are hand-edited and checked for spelling and punctuation errors.
