An entertaining story

The Road
Jack London

The Road
Good collection of stories from the road. London delivers. Don't expect Call of the Wild or White Fang, the subject is different. Mainly stories from life as a "hobo".
The Blithedale Romance
Nathaniel Hawthorne
Aegypan, 2007
This book grows out of an experiment in socialism that Nathaniel Hawthorne participated in at Brook Fram. It grows out of that that experiment, but does not, said Hawthorne, record it directly.

The Phantom of the Opera
Gaston Leroux
Aegypan, 2007
The Phantom of the Opera is the most famous work of French author Gaston Leroux. Far darker than the stories familiar to audiences of today from the phenomenally successful Broadway musical and the early Lon Chaney, Jr. film, Leroux's Fantom is a genuine murderer, and the story, a true Gothic murder/horror tale. Erik, the Phantom of the Opera, ...
Tarzan of the Apes
Edgar Rice Burroughs
Aegypan Books, 2003
Loved it but for one major flaw and a few minor ones.
I can forgive some of the unrealistic things as well as the multiple coincidences, but I cannot reconcile how Tarzan, who knew how to read and write, but not yet how to speak, could sign his own name on a love note to Jane. He had never learned pronunciation of ...

The Canterville Ghost
Oscar Wilde
Aegypan, 2006
Wilde is always a genius, if only this were longer
May other reviews have mentioned how short this novella is. Wilde created a wonderful haunted house, and a ghost who has through the last 300 years terrorized the Canterville family. Wilde has always been brilliant in his simplicity, in his wit, and in how quickly ...
