The Valley of the Spiders
by H G Wells
29 minutes, 11 seconds
Unabridged SF/Fantasy Pulp Adventure Story
1903
H G Wells was such a science fiction pioneer that he took all the great, archetypal titles (Think about it: The Time Machine, The War of the Worlds, The Magic Shop, etc.. You'd think he would have at least been generous enough to call it, say, "A Magic Shop," allowing that Asimov or Heinlein might decades later want to write about another one.) So it goes with "The Valley of the Spiders."
Three adventurers face danger, death, and giant spiders, all for thecapture love of a woman, in this classic pulp adventure story. Read by Alex Wilson. Not for sale in the EU.

Herbert George Wells (1866-1946) was a British author often called "The Father of Science Fiction." Even before the 20th century began, his fiction and articles explored invisibility, interstellar travel, time travel, and genetic experimentation. His novel, The War of the Worlds was serialized in the American magazine Cosmopolitan, and later turned into a famous radio drama by Orson Wells.
