The Man Who Would Be King. It's one that has been on my TBR list for quite some time. I shouldn't have waited so long.
It's a very short story so if anyone wants to take a break from the book that there’re reading I would strongly recommend it.
I really, really, liked the movie, but the story as told by Kipling in this book leaves you holding your breath and unable to move until the last word.
Horror today means chainsaws or monsters. Kipling can convey a sense of horror on a human scale that the slash & gash films can't do with a dozen bodies.
