Murderous Nature - A Short Story Collection

Humanity depends on Nature for everything. Without her resources and bounty, we would not exist. Despite our on-going depletion of her wares, she simply gets on with her work. Her seasons turn, life continues. But it seems Nature has a darker, more malevolent side. Something insidious, almost devilish. In this collection of short story gems Nature indeed takes another look at humanity and decides she would rather not be at their mercy and will. Through the words of these classic authors including Hawthorne, M R James, Schwob, Alcott, H G Wells and many others Nature vents her fury, her more malign and malicious designs upon men and women who have regrettably displeased her. 01 - Murderous Nature - A Short Story Collection - An Introduction 02 - The Flowering of the Strange Orchid by H G Wells 03 - Lost in a Pyramid (or the Mummy's Curse) by Louisa May Alcott writing as A M Bernard 04 - The Ash Tree by M R James.wav 05 - The Hawthorn Tree by A M Burrage 06 - The Moaning Lily by Emma Vane 07 - The Name-Tree by Mary Webb 08 - Carnivorine by Lucy Hamilton Hooper 09 - The Sumach by Ulric Daubeny 10 - Arachne by Marcel Schwob 11 - The Voice in the Night by William Hope Hodgson 12 - Rappaccini's Daughter - Part 1 by Nathaniel Hawthorne 13 - Rappaccini's Daughter - Part 2 by Nathaniel Hawthorne
