El diablo de la botella
by Robert Louis StevensonLuego de una vida de aventuras, durante la que se hizo famoso por sus narraciones fantásticas que estremecían a los lectores, Robert Louis se instaló en una isla de Samoa para cuidar su salud. Y como no dejaba de imaginar nuevos relatos, los isleños lo llamaron Tusitala, que significa "el contador de historias", título que para ellos tiene aún más poder que el del mismo rey. La popularidad de Robert L. Stevenson se basa en los emocionantes argumentos de sus relatos, plenos de acción, fantasía y aventura. Es también un maestro de la narración breve, del elaborado suspenso, de la circunstancia sorprendente, de la distancia y la precisión, de la que El Diablo en la Botella constituye una acabada muestra.

This novella is part of The Three Lands, a fantasy series set in a multicultural world where conflicts over law and spirituality provide opportunities for friendship, and for betrayal.
