Book Description
Wolverine is the best there is at what he does - fighting in mutant-mixed-martial-arts tournaments, handing out relationship advice and eating hot dogs! Spider-Man issues the ultimate challenge to one of his deadliest enemies - an invitation to the prom! The Mighty Thor forges a powerful new alliance - with a cleverly disguised farm animal! Fear not, Friends of Old Marvel - you haven't fallen prey to the illusions of Loki. You've simply discovered Strange Tales II! A band of the best and brightest talents in independent, alternative and online comics joins forces with the Earth's Mightiest Heroes for a sequel to the acclaimed Strange Tales anthology, one that critics are calling "better than any of the previous run" (Douglas Wolk, Time.com's Techland).

Two Strange Tales
Author: Mircea Eliade
Publisher: National Geographic Books
ISBN: 1570626634
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
"No event in our world is real, my friend. Everything that occurs in this universe is illusory... And in a world of appearances, in which no thing and no event has any permanence, any reality of its own—whoever is master of certain forces can do anything he wishes..." So speaks a character in Two Strange Tales, a pair of novellas in which Westerners are caught up in the uncanny realm of Eastern religion and magic. In "Nights at Serampore," three European scholars, traveling deep into the forests of Bengal, are inexplicably cast into another time and space where they witness the violent murder of a young Hindu wife. In "The Secret of Dr. Honingberger," a respectable Rumanian physician vanishes without a trace after experimenting with yogic techniques in his quest for the legendary invisible world called Shambhala. In Two Strange Tales, author Mircea Eliade combined yogic folklore with the literary genre of the supernatural suspense tale so as to reveal dimensions of experience that are inaccessible to other intellectual approaches. These well-crafted stories will appeal to both lovers of the supernatural and those fascinated by mysticism of the East.
