Wow! Not your typical "Jack London." When one thinks of London, such titles as "White Fang" and "Call of the Wild" come to mind. One may even think of Alaska! But...Jack London writing about spirit projections and aliens??? A fantastic look into the other side of a creative talent. A wonder to read!! Wow! Not your typical "Jack London."
