The Collected Writings of Ambrose Bierce was a very interesting story to me. The author did a great job playing it out like a movie for me. I can picture perfectly how everything happened and it had me anxious to read what was coming next. Towards the end I was thinking he made a great escape from death and how much courage he had just to get back to his wife and home. But all that was his vision before his body was left hanging from the bridge. This was one of my favorites from all of the reading assignments this semester.
The Most Dangerous Game was a great story. The General was a sick man who got off by hunting humans but the hunted, Rainsford, he was very skilled and determined to survive. I liked the story but at the end I was a little confused. I wonder why Rainsford didn’t kill the General right then and there. I figured he was fed to the hounds but why would his own hounds kill him? I must have missed something but I still think it was a good story.
