A practising doctor, Chekhov was an acute observer of Russian society's moral, as well as physical sickness. Joining The Russian Master, Ward Number Six, and A Woman's Kingdom in the World's Classics series, this collection, including `The Party', `After the Theatre', and `A Case History', again poses his recurrent literary quandary of whether to moralize, hoping to reform these ailments, or simply to entertain. The solution is to be found in the stories themselves, which, like his plays,offer no easy answers, but pinpoint the anguish, tedium, or downright evil of his characters with an irony that makes them both poignant and truthful.

In this classic fantasy novel a warrior sets out to win a deadly contest to rule a prehistoric empire—and take the hand of its beautiful priestess. The lost city of Opar was first introduced to readers in the Tarzan novels of Edgar Rice Burroughs. Hidden deep in Africa, it is a place shrouded in mystery and awash with incredible riches. In Hadon of Ancient Opar, Hugo and Nebula Award–winning author Philip José Farmer reimagines this forgotten land, revealing the heroes who lived in its prehistoric golden age . . . A poor young man of great ambition, Hadon leaves his village to enter the great games of Klakor—a bloody contest in which only the strongest and most cunning warrior will survive. He seeks the ultimate prize: to rule the Khokarsan Empire alongside the powerful High Priestess. But his quest for the throne leads him beyond the empire’s edge, where he finds himself embroiled in civil war.
