The River God (Fantasy and Horror Classics)

About this book

Beneath the tranquil surface of the water, a force of nature awaits, a challenge that goes beyond sport and enters the realm of obsession.

Roland Pertwee's acclaimed tale, The River God, is a masterful blend of sporting narrative and atmospheric folklore. It tells the story of an angler's relentless and all-consuming quest to catch an impossibly huge and elusive salmon.

The fish is more than just a prize; it is a legendary, almost mythical creature which seems to embody the very spirit and power of the water. The protagonist pours his life, his focus, and his pride into the pursuit, facing repeated failures, broken rods, and the sheer, brutal strength of his quarry.

The narrative elevates the contest from a simple fishing story into an almost supernatural duel between man and a primal force. It is a brilliant study of obsession and the way an unrelenting passion can turn an ordinary man's pursuit into a fate-driven encounter with the wild.
