  Buck, a sturdy crossbreed canine (half St. Bernard, half Shepard), is a dog born to luxury and raised in a sheltered Californian home. But then he is kidnapped and sold to be a sled dog in the harsh and frozen Yukon Territory. Passed from master to master, Buck embarks on an extraordinary journey, proving his unbreakable spirit... 
  First published in 1903, The Call of the Wild is regarded as Jack London's masterpiece. Based on London's experiences as a gold prospector in the Canadian wilderness and his ideas about nature and the struggle for existence, The Call of the Wild is a tale about unbreakable spirit and the fight for survival in the frozen Alaskan Klondike. 
  No other popular writer of his time did any better writing than you will find in "The Call of the Wild". —H. L. Mencken. 
  Few men have more convincingly examined the connection between the creative powers of the individual writer and the unconscious drive to breed and to survive, found in the natural world… London is in and committed to his creations to a degree very nearly unparalleled in the composition of fiction. —James Dickey

  The Horror in the Hold - When...

  Frank Belknap Long

  A storm-tossed ship drifts through the Caribbean, its weary crew praying for calm seas—and for mercy from something far worse than the wind. When a pirate known as the Scourge of the Caribbees anchors off a seemingly peaceful island, his men uncover an ancient terror that does not belong to this world. What begins as a tale of gold and glory soon turns to nightmare in the dark recesses of the ship’s hold. 
  Originally published in Weird Tales in February 1932, “The Horror in the Hold” captures everything readers love about early pulp horror—salt-stung realism, eerie supernatural undertones, and the creeping dread that Frank Belknap Long perfected. Long’s gift for atmosphere makes you feel the creak of timbers, the weight of the sea, and the presence of something watching from below decks. 
  Long was a central figure in the early Weird Tales circle, a close friend and correspondent of H. P. Lovecraft, and a vital voice in shaping twentieth-century speculative fiction. Born in New York City in 1901, Frank Belknap Long began publishing in the 1920s and went on to write across genres—science fiction, fantasy, mystery, and poetry. His work often bridged the gap between cosmic horror and adventure storytelling, bringing imagination and emotion to both. 
  Over his long career, Long received the World Fantasy Award for Life Achievement and the Bram Stoker Award from the Horror Writers Association. He wrote for more than half a century, influencing generations of writers who followed. Whether depicting ancient evils or distant planets, Long’s stories remind us that the unknown—like the sea—always hides something beneath the surface.

  The Mortal Immortal by Mary Shelley 
  July 16, 1833.—This is a memorable anniversary for me; on it I complete my three hundred and twenty-third year! 
  The Wandering Jew?—certainly not. More than eighteen centuries have passed over his head. In comparison with him, I am a very young Immortal. 
  Am I, then, immortal? This is a question which I have asked myself, by day and night, for now three hundred and three years, and yet cannot answer it. I detected a grey hair amidst my brown locks this very day—that surely signifies decay. Yet it may have remained concealed there for three hundred years—for some persons have become entirely white-headed before twenty years of age. 
  I will tell my story, and my reader shall judge for me. I will tell my story, and so contrive to pass some few hours of a long eternity, become so wearisome to me. For ever! Can it be? to live for ever! I have heard of enchantments, in which the victims were plunged into a deep sleep, to wake, after a hundred years, as fresh as ever: I have heard of the Seven Sleepers—thus to be immortal would not be so burthensome: but, oh! the weight of never-ending time—the tedious passage of the still-succeeding hours! How happy was the fabled Nourjahad!—But to my task.
