The Sound of His Horn by Sarban

by Sarban

Overview

Alan Querdilion, a young naval lieutenant, is captured by the Germans and wakes up in a hospital bed - more than 100 years later. The Germans have won the war, and the Third Reich stretches from the Urals to the Atlantic. Non Aryans are bred as slaves. Deprived of speech and intelligence by the surgeon's knife, they serve their masters with their bodies. Count Hans von Hackelnberg, master of the Reich's forests, rules his domain with the iron fist of a feudal lord. His passion is hunting. At night the sound of his horn echoes eerily through the moonlit forest as the pack closes in on its prey. A pack of half-naked cat-girls, their hands sheathed in iron claws and their bellies starved of fresh meat. And their quarry, as Alan discovers too late, is ... himself

About the Author

Sarban was the pseudonym of John William Wall (1910-1989) a British career diplomat and writer. After studying English and Arabic, Wall joined the diplomatic corps and served across the Arab world. While his foreign service career lasted more than thirty years, Wall's writing career was rather brief. He published three novels under the name Sarban in the early 1950s, after which his literary efforts largely ceased. His most well known work is the science fiction/alternate history classic THE SOUND OF HIS HORN, first published in 1952.
