Beschreibung

A world wiped out. A survivor who remembers. A warning that feels eerily close to our own.
Set in a devastated future, The Scarlet Plague follows an old man guiding his grandsons through the ruins of a once-thriving civilization. As they wander the empty landscape, he recounts the terrifying plague that swept across the globe—how society crumbled overnight, how fear replaced order, and how humanity was forced back to primitive survival.

Praised as "one of the earliest and most chilling visions of global collapse," Jack London's novella blends suspense, stark beauty, and unsettling realism. Its portrait of fragility, resilience, and the lessons forgotten by future generations remains strikingly relevant.

If you enjoy dystopian fiction, survival stories, and classics that echo with modern resonance, this powerful tale will grip your imagination.

Open the book—and walk through a world where one plague changed everything.
