From the opening of "One More Unfortunate," first story in the fiction section: "It was midnight -- a black, wet, midnight-in a great city by the sea. The church clocks were booming the hour, in tones half-smothered by the marching rain, when an officer of the watch saw a female figure glide past him like a ghost in the gloom, and make directly toward a wharf. The officer felt that some dreadful tragedy was about to be enacted, and started in pursuit . . ." We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection.

Book excerpt: It was midnight-a black, wet, midnight-in a great city by the sea. The churchclocks were booming the hour, in tones half-smothered by the marching rain, whenan officer of the watch saw a female figure glide past him like a ghost in the gloom, and make directly toward a wharf. The officer felt that some dreadful tragedy wasabout to be enacted, and started in pursuit. Through the sleeping city sped thosetwo dark figures like shadows athwart a tomb. Out along the deserted wharf to itsfarther end fled the mysterious fugitive, the guardian of the night vainlyendeavouring to overtake, and calling to her to stay. Soon she stood upon theextreme end of the pier, in the scourging rain which lashed her fragile figure andblinded her eyes with other tears than those of grief. The night wind tossed hertresses wildly in air, and beneath her bare feet the writhing billows struggledblackly upward for their prey. At this fearful moment the panting officer stumbledand fell! He was badly bruised; he felt angry and misanthropic. Instead of rising tohis feet, he sat doggedly up and began chafing his abraded shin. The desperatewoman raised her white arms heavenward for the final plunge, and the voice of thegale seemed like the dread roaring of the waters in her ears, as down, down, shewent-in imagination-to a black death among the spectral piles. She backed a fewpaces to secure an impetus, cast a last look upon the stony officer, with a wildshriek sprang to the awful verge and came near losing her balance. Recoveringherself with an effort, she turned her face again to the officer, who was clawingabout for his missing club. Having secured it, he started to leave

Download or read book The Fiends Delight written by Ambrose Bierce and published by BEYOND BOOKS HUB. This book was released on 2023-08-24 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The atrocities constituting this “cold collation” of diabolisms are taken mainly from various Californian journals. They are cast in the American language, and liberally enriched with unintelligibility. If they shall prove incomprehensible on this side of the Atlantic, the reader can pass to the other side at a moderately extortionate charge. In the pursuit of my design I think I have killed a good many people in one way and another; but the reader will please to observe that they were not people worth the trouble of leaving alive. Besides, I had the interests of my collaborator to consult. In writing, as in compiling, I have been ably assisted by my scholarly friend Mr. Satan; and to this worthy gentleman must be attributed most of the views herein set forth. While the plan of the work is partly my own, its spirit is wholly his; and this illustrates the ascendancy of the creative over the merely imitative mind. Palmam qui meruit ferat—I shall be content with the profit...FROM THE BOOKS.
