Summary: The Star Rover
Review: An Excellent, yet not very well known book by Jack London. It's inspired by a real story of an innocently sentenced man, Ed Morrell, whom we find to participate in the book.The main character is Darrel Standing, university profesor sentenced for his life to San Quentin jail and is then sentenced to death for hitting a warden in nose. London describes the suffering and solitude of a criminal who finds his freedom in a world of dreams and memories of recent lives his soul went through. London shows the strength of a man's soul, which cannot be broken even by the worst tortures. An extraordinary book, really a must-read.

Review: Well I think that this book was not the book I was looking for, it starts out well and very descriptive, but as you go on into the book it gets worse and worse, chapter by chapter. I personaly will probably never read another Jack London book because this one was so borring.

Review: yes, i am also sad that not many people know about the book... that's why I am ordering it in english so that i can lend it to my friends (I have already read it in a Czech translation). I'd be interested to hear from anyone else who has read it.
