Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from In the Shadow of God Over the face of Devi´s Backbone hung a low, far-reaching blanket of dun clouds, making prematurely somber the close of the October day. One suddenly set down here at this hour might easily imagine he had come to the top of the world. The narrow neck of land rose sheer from encompassing shadows; no sign of life or habitation met the eye. The skyline melted vaguely into the lower obscurity, save in the west, where still lingered a brown smudge of tenuous vapor. On the highway that wound along the Backbone appeared a moving silhouette that grew slowly into the figure of a man. He stopped and, peered about him into the night. On the end of a staff thrown across his shoulder depended a handbag, and in his hand he carried a square, bulky package. This he placed upon the ground and sank with a motion of weariness upon it. There was a dejection on the face of the youth in keeping with the gloom ground him. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
