Delphi Complete Works of John Wyndham Illustrated

The sci-fi writer John Wyndham produced innovative works examining the human struggle for survival when catastrophic natural phenomena suddenly invade a comfortable English setting. The 1951 post-apocalyptic masterpiece ‘The Day of the Triffids’, depicting lethal mobile plants that menace the human race, quickly established Wyndham as a prominent figure of science-fiction literature. He was also a master of the short story, penning engaging tales of science fiction, satire, detective mysteries and whimsical fantasy. His work went on to inspire numerous writers throughout the late twentieth century, including Margaret Atwood, Stephen King and Alex Garland. This eBook presents Wyndham’s complete works, with numerous illustrations, rare tales, informative introductions and the usual Delphi bonus material. (Version 1)

Please note: no known copies of Wyndham’s first novel ‘The Curse of the Burdens’ are available at the time of publication. The posthumous novel ‘Plan for Chaos’ and the posthumous short story ‘Blackmoil’ cannot appear due to copyright restrictions. When new works enter the public domain, they will be added to the collection as a free update.
