Most readers are familiar with Jack London's stories of the frozen northland, such as White Fang and To Light a Fire, but many critics feel he should be equally acknowledged for his fascinating stories of the South Pacific. Here is another remote corner of the world, a background for his magnificently colorful and entertaining Tales of the South Pacific. London is able to pierce the stereotype of his era concerning the "Noble Savage" and present the people who lived on these exotic islands as individuals who had to deal with the white man's intrusions, the racism, foreign diseases, biased legal systems, and brutality. These stories are based on the themes Jack London considered most important: race, culture, justice, and heroism.©1909 Acción y Aventura Antologías Antologías y Cuentos Cortos Clásicos Ficción Cuentos Short Stories

Mr. London is well known for his stories of the frigid north but I tell you no one can spin a sailor’s yarn like Jack London! I enjoyed these stories immensely, the narration is absolutely brilliant, spot on, five enthusiastic stars!

Bloody riot lol! Brilliant!

Reminiscent of preliterate story tradition. Felt like I was there in the old South Seas. Not recommended for impressionable readers for frequent use of the N word.

Jack London's "South Sea Tales" hit my sweet spot of masterful storytelling, well-crafted writing, thrilling adventure, and dark humor. Usually I wait until after I finish an audiobook to review it, but after I saw several negative reviews I am going to review it now after listening to the first two stories, and urge you not to listen to those other reviewers. Listen to the book yourself. Without question, Jack London is one of the finest writers of short stories. In these tales he not only gives free reign of his creativity, but delves into his deep knowledge of the South Pacific, having sailed there himself. I would listen to the first story "The House of Mapuhi" again just to hear this tale of a precious pearl and a murderous hurricane. If you are into cannibals, you got to listen to "The Whale Tooth." I dare you to put the audiobook down when you are half way through with this story. You will want to finish this story and go on to the next one. London knows how to hook a reader or listener whom he keeps engaged, surprised, entertained, and thrilled until the very end. The narration is also superb. Buy this audiobook.

Exceptional Storytelling

I could imagine Jack London aboard the Snark hearing tales from the natives and seamen from the “old days” only a few years or decades before.

Something different from the great London.

Better known, obviously, for his tales set in the Pacific Northwest and Alaska, I’ve found South Sea Tales to be a masterful work.

Jack London has made me feel like I’ve ridden out a hurricane, hunted pearls, encountered cannibals, and paddled a dugout across the trade winds from Palau to the Solomon Islands.

Masterful Tales of a time gone by

Jack London resurrected. The book is a masterpiece; tales of a hurricane so strong you cannot breathe, of battles between slave traders and the villagers they hunted and who hunted them, of the odessy of the most beautiful pearl ever found, of the treacherous shoals and currents conspiring to sink a ship in distress and the Pitcarin Islander who left his home in order to navigate the hapless crew to a safe harbor hundreds of miles away. Written with London's deep understanding of Man, an artist's insight into his surroundings, and a great writer's ability to weave a sumptuous tale right before your eyes.

I enjoyed the book but I was also happy when it ended. The stories all blended together by the end.

The stories got a bit repetitive after a while
