Sinopse

Disaster looms in the countryside. A dismally wet spring threatens to wipe out the summer harvests, and ruin the eggs of nesting birds. Against this emerging backdrop is set an exciting, evocative and often very amusing story that takes the reader directly into the lives of the birds and animals for whom the weather can be both friend – and implacable foe.      
The wise old toad, Tarquin, warns the animal community that without a successful harvest, starvation will follow in the winter. Meanwhile Wrecker the Weasel, leader of a group of professional egg thieves, is struggling to find – and steal – enough eggs to meet the demands of dangerous and powerful figures in the ferret underworld. Salvation for all could lie in the grain stores and hen house of nearby Half Mile Farm, but with the farm in the brutal grip of rodent gangster ‘Monsta’ the Rat, what steps can the beleaguered creatures take to secure their livelihoods – and their very survival?

    The Man Who Was Pale by Jack Sharkey first appeared in Fantastic Science Fiction Stories in December 1959. It begins quietly, on a moonlit night as a man recounts the strange visions that have haunted him since childhood—visions of another life he seems to live only in dreams. As his story unfolds, reality and illusion blur, creating a chilling sense that his dream-self might be more real than the waking world. Sharkey builds his unease gradually, through atmosphere and introspection rather than violence, exploring themes of duality, memory, and the thin veil separating worlds. The result is a story that lingers in the imagination long after it ends, more ghostly than gruesome, and deeply human beneath its mystery. 
    Jack Sharkey (1931–1992) was an American writer known for his wit, imagination, and versatility across science fiction, fantasy, and mystery. A frequent contributor to Fantastic, If, and Galaxy magazines, Sharkey’s stories often combined humor with a sly sense of irony. He was equally at home writing eerie speculative tales or lighthearted satire, bringing intelligence and empathy to both. Beyond short fiction, he wrote plays, mystery novels, and even stage adaptations, earning a devoted following for his deft storytelling and inventive twists. 
    Like many pulp-era authors, Sharkey captured the restless spirit of mid-century speculative fiction—a time when imagination pushed against the limits of reality. The Man Who Was Pale exemplifies his gift for weaving unease and wonder together, inviting readers to question not just what is real, but who they truly are when the lights go out.
