The Slayer
Savage was a hard man¸ a big¸ strong¸ clean-shaven Englishman¸ Yorkshire born¸ and ungiven to promiscuous friendships. He had pushed his way in the world. He had come here to trade on his own¸ and felt quite capable of standing on his own feet. Still¸ in a place like Maneta there are numerous little things that an inhabitant can do for a stranger. Little things that make for comfort in a place where comfort is made up of little things. Stacpoole¸ author of the classic novel The Blue Lagoon¸ weaves his special magic throughout all of his stories. "The Slayer" originally appeared in 1918. Note: This digital edition includes the PDF¸ EPUB and MOBI (Kindle) versions of the book.
