Well at the World End
|
28h
|
|
J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis are but successors to William Morris. Tale of quest, adventure, magic and war set in an invented age and in the invented world of the author's own imagination. Lots of very old-fashioned archaic English....

Phantom Ship
|
18h45m
|
|
Another version of Flying Dutchman legend. This one involved the captain's son and his never-ending quest to release his father from the God's punishment. Usual lots of pirates, treasures, adventures, shipwrecks and supernatural. Even a bit of Inquisition thrown in for good measure. But nothing to do with The Pirates of The Caribbean film version....

Tyl Ulenspiegel

The Legend of the glorious adventures of Tyl Ulenspiegel in the Land of Flanders and elsewhere. As an envisagement of the horrors of the Spanish Inquisition this very anti-Catholic book is probably without parallel....

Prophetic, satirical and disturbing Sci-Fi from the author who mostly known for inventing the word "robot". Also known as "War With The Newts". This is truly visionary book especially with Genetic Revolution coming nearer and nearer every day....
