The Hounds RECOMMENDATION
of Fate
ALL IMAGES VIDEO NEWS MORE

I don’t like to read books, however, this book is different.

It is intensive, and it keeps the suspense because it raises
the question whether he will die or not, or Tom will come
back or not. If you read ‘The Stalled Ox and Other Stories’,
you can meet other exciting stories that Author Saki wrote.
Especially ‘The Hounds of Fate’ is the best story for me
because there are many ironies to make interest.
