| Description: | This is a sequel to "Our Distant Cousins" to be found in "The Travel Tales of Mr. Joseph Jorkens".
You will be able to find Lord Dunsany's Our Distant Cousins represented in half a dozen popular anthologies. In fact it is quite difficult to fail to encounter that story of a flight to Mars by an aviator friend of the famed raconteur, Jorkens, and of the curious condition this aviator, Terner, found on the red planet: how humanity was but the penned-up cattle for a fearsome, inhuman master species. What is not common knowledge is that Lord Dunsany wrote a sequel to Our Distant Cousins in response to public demand for further news of the situation on Mars. Even if by some inexplicable chance, you didn't read the original story, we are sure that you will still find The Slugly Beast an interesting departure from the interplanetary track.--intro.
