Short and sweet, Richard Connell's 'The Most Dangerous Game' reads
as well as it did when it was written nearly a century years ago. A
model in lean prose that sticks to the story without unnecessary
embellishment, Connell's masterpiece manages to expose weighty
issues of war, ecology, and human nature that remain relevant
today. There is no preaching here - simply a well-told tale. This
little gem set the foundation for decades of authors and
screenwriters who've picked up on the basic man-hunter theme. At
half the price of a movie, "The Most Dangerous Game" is worth a
detour back to one of the key building blocks of modern pop
fiction.
