Recently divorced and staring down the barrel of moving back in
with her parents, Carrot really needs a break. And a place to live.
So when her Uncle Earl, owner of the eclectic Wonder Museum, asks
her to stay with him in exchange for cataloguing the exhibits, of
course she says yes. The Wonder Museum is packed with taxidermy,
shrunken heads, and an assortment of Mystery Junk. For Carrot, it's
not creepy at all: she grew up with it. What's creepy is the hole
that's been knocked in one of the museum walls, and the corridor
behind it. There's just no space for a corridor in the museum's
thin walls - or the concrete bunker at the end of it, or the
strange islands beyond the bunker's doors, or the whispering,
unseen things lurking in the willow trees. Carrot has stumbled into
a strange and horrifying world, and They are watching her. Strewn
among the islands are the remains of Their meals - and Their
experiments. And even if she manages to make it back home again,
she can't stop calling Them after her...

Introduction by Greg Bear
Preface by Mark Cotta Vaz
The giant prehistoric gorilla King Kong is one of the most
recognized images in our culture. So great is the mighty Kong's
hold on the popular imagination that his story-a gripping yarn of
man versus nature, coupled with a fantastical update of the Beauty
and the Beast legend-has been thrice made into a motion picture
(most recently in 2005) and referenced endlessly in every medium,
from books to prime-time sitcoms.
Beneath King Kong's cultural significance, however, is a tense and
surprisingly tender story. One cannot help but be frightened by
Kong's uncontrollable fury, be saddened over the giant's capture,
mistreatment, and exploitation by venal showmen, or sympathize with
the beast's ill-fated affection for the down-on-her-luck starlet
Ann Darrow.
This Modern Library edition of a true colossus among adventure
stories is reprinted from the original 1932 novelization of the
movie script, and includes a Preface by Mark Cotta Vaz, the
preeminent biographer of Merian C. Cooper, producer of the original
1933 classic film.
