Mark Twain's Medieval Romance : And Other Classic Mystery Stories By Ray Bradbuyt, Roald Dahl, Aldous Huxley, Frank Stockton, O. Henry, and Many More

New York, NY, U.S.A., 2006. Hard Back. Very Good/Very Good. 6" X 8 1/2. 301 Pages. Light stains to top of front cover and first few pages. Otherwise a tight book with flawless interior text pages. The classic stories in this collection come with an irresistible challenge: At their end they leave it to you, the reader, to determine how they end. For ultimately it's the reader who controls the fate of the brave youth as he contemplates which of the two doors in the king's arena he will choose in Frank Stockton's famous and unforgettable The Lady, or the Tiger. And which of the two brothers in Stanley Ellin's Unreasonable Doubt shoots a bullet square in the middle of their rich uncle's forehead? And just what secret is the prim Miss Spence hiding behind her smile in Aldous Huxley's enigmatic tale. You decide. In all, as in The Moment of Decision-a chilling tale that seals an escape artist inside an airless stone cell with a heavy wooden door, which mayr may not open-the moment of decision is yours.
