Sporting Tales
‘Imagine my situation as I clung desperately to the wing of the enraged bird. He was whirling me round and round as though he were a discus-thrower—and I the discus! My arms soon began to ache with the strain, and the swift and continuous circling was making me dizzy. But I knew that if I relaxed my hold, even for a second, a terrible fate awaited me.’ Things rarely go as planned in Ruskin Bond’s world, especially when cricket bats, bicycles, jungle creatures and Uncle Ken are involved. In Sporting Tales, Ruskin Bond gathers some of his most entertaining adventures where games, competitions and small challenges lead to very big surprises. There are boys who dream of glory, friends who fall out and make up again, unexpected heroes and the occasional crocodile, ostrich or ghostly interruption. Funny, fast-moving and full of heart, these stories remind us that sport isn’t only about winning. It’s about spirit. And sometimes survival.

At The Altaras Of The Unkown
Just beyond the veil of reason lies the expanse of the unknown. Who goes there, nobody knows. Certain footsteps echo and certain (un)life blooms, yet it is darkness that greets us when we peek within. The unknown—the incomprehensible—demands a fearful capitulation. Thus we kneel at its altar and pray—for the respite from the need to pray. But its touch is infectious and reveals the lurking fear underneath the mundane. And there’s nowhere left to hide. At the Altars of the Unknown is a collection of 13 classic horror tales about those beings that exist beyond the veil—be they deities, demons, or visitors from outer space. Step in, why don’t you? What have you got to lose?
