The October Country: Stories

The October Country: Stories

The October Country is Ray Bradburyâ€™s own netherworld of the soul, inhabited by the horrors and demons that lurk within all of us. Renowned for his multi-million-copy bestseller, Fahrenheit 451, and hailed by Harperâ€™s magazine as â€œthe finest living writer of fantastic fiction,â€ Ray Bradbury proves here that he is Americaâ€™s master of the short story.

This classic collection features:

The Emissary: The faithful dog was the sick boyâ€™s only connection with the world outsideâ€”and beyond . . .
The Small Assassin: A fine, healthy baby boy was the new motherâ€™s dream come trueâ€”or her worst nightmare . . .
The Scythe:Â Just when his luck had run out, Drew Erickson inherited a farm from a stranger; and with the bequest came deadly responsibilities . . .
The Jar:Â A chilling story that combines love, death . . . and a matter of identity in a bottle of fear.
The Wonderful Death of Dudley Stone:Â A most remarkable case of murderâ€”the deceased was delighted . . .Â

Plus fourteen more unforgettable tales!
