The Nine Unknown The Red Flame of Erinpura
Talbot Mundy
This is the first story in which Chulunder Gon takes a leading position, and previously acted only in the company of other Mundi heroes. The story is about a corrupt Indian ruler who is looking for hidden wealth on his land and has formed a background for the curtains of the gods of Manda. The buried treasures are in fact oil deposits. The inspirational author had his own interest in oil in Mexico and the presence of oil in Assam, one of the Indian provinces, which Talbot visited in his youth. Mundi describes the acquisition of wealth in the context of an adventure, about which he simultaneously wrote and tried to live in it.
Edgar Wallace
Rather different from the usual Wallace plot, here we have a tramp heading for the Canadian border who marries a girl while in a drunken stupor. Her wedding day was so fraught with danger that she and her husband were forced to flee from the deadly menace that ruthlessly dogged their every move. She learned to avoid the man with the red beard and his swarthy knife-juggling companion. Above all, she feared and avoided Gussie, whose drawl and monocle gave him a deceptive appearance of meekness. Who were these three and who was her strange husband and what was the secret that spelled death between them? Mysterious tramps, Chicago gangsters, and villainous members of the English nobility!
Lewis Carroll
This is a simplified version of Alice in Wonderland for the little ones. Added a few new digressions that still add color to this childrens fiction. Easy to read and easy to understand, which is the most important. As always, amazing creatures will meet on the path of the protagonist.
The Oak Openings. Or, The Bee-Hunter
James Fenimore Cooper
In this book you will find a description of the life and way of life of the indigenous inhabitants of the country Indians and white settlers; numerous hunting scenes. The novel will not leave indifferent either those who appreciate the sharp, constantly in suspense plot, or those who are interested in the conditions under which the development of the American continent was carried out at the beginning of the last century.
Hulbert Footner
The novel begins with the fact that Phil Nevitt, an employee of an American alcoholic beverage company, goes to Annunziata, the mythical island of Futners creation in the West Indies, to learn everything he can about the Randall Trantora rum. The Obeah Murders show their fantastic roots with so many genre influences (spy, western, adventure, supernatural and detective). In the end, however, the race issue was the most surprising and, ultimately, the most important aspect of the book. More Footner reviews will appear later this summer.
Ethel M. Dell
This is another wonderful Christian love story by British writer of popular romance novels Ethel M. Dell. She was a popular 20th century writer who wrote dozens of romance novels and several short stories, including the well known The Keeper of the Door series. Our story takes place mainly in a little fishing village in England. This small seaside village hides a romance for Juliet Moore a romance with Dick Green, the village schoolmaster, a very different sort of man than the socialite swells shes known in London. But there are also secrets between them that threaten to tear them apart. It is a very sweet love story, full of surprises and poignant moments. The Obstacle Race is an interesting book and written in the classic style of an old-fashioned inspirational love story.
