Cover von Erskine Childers: The Riddle of the Sands (ePUB)

The Riddle of the Sands: A Record of Secret Service is a patriotic British 1903 novel by Erskine Childers.It is a novel that ‚owes a lot to the wonderful adventure novels of writers like Rider Haggard, that were a staple of Victorian Britain‘; perhaps more significantly, it was a spy novel that ‚established a formula that included a mass of verifiable detail, which gave authenticity to the story – the same ploy that would be used so well by John Buchan, Ian Fleming, John le Carré and many others.‘ Ken Follett called it ‚the first modern thriller.‘
