About This Item
Toronto, ON: Stone Fox Publishing, 2001. Soft cover. Very Good. Clean, tight, unmarked; absolute minimal wear; appears unread; Originally published in London, England by Chatto & Windus in 1888. Very much a product of its time, Canada's first science fiction novel recounts the strange adventures of a sailor cast ashore among a race of cannibals who regard death as the greatest blessing they can bestow. Part swashbuckling adventure, part love story and part examination of accepted values turned inside out, this novel is important both as a landmark in the development of Canadian science fiction as a captivating piece of literature.
