(The only historical fiction I read before adulthood was the Regency romances of Georgette Heyer). It was published in 1954 and has remained popular ever since but somehow passed me by. Unlike many History Girls, I never read the novel "Katherine" by Anya Seton. I can't remember when I first became interested in the Beauforts, the children conceived by Katherine Swynford by her lover, John of Gaunt, and later legitimised by their marriage. ![]() ![]() ![]() He independently authored Wolf of Shadows (1985), a young adult novel set in the aftermath of a nuclear war.

Strieber then turned to speculative fiction with social conscience. ![]() Strieber began his career as a novelist with the horror novels The Wolfen (1978) and The Hunger (1981), both of which were made into feature films, followed by the less successful horror novels Black Magic (1982) and The Night Church (1983).

Louis Whitley Strieber ( / ˈ s t r iː b ər/ born June 13, 1945) is an American writer best known for his horror novels The Wolfen and The Hunger and for Communion, a non-fiction account of his alleged experiences with non-human entities. ![]() Social science fiction, Ufology, Horror novels ![]() ![]() ![]() In 2012 the scientific establishment still assumed that it is the “neurological substrates” that (somehow) generate consciousness. ![]() Non-human animals, including all mammals and birds, and many other creatures, including octopuses, also possess these neural substrates.” ![]() In 2012, a group of neuroscientists signed the Cambridge Declaration on Consciousness, which “unequivocally” asserted: “Humans are not unique in possessing the neurological substrates that generate consciousness. But with the turn of the century the prevailing view began to change, scientific papers were published on intelligence in animals and more and more scientists began to suspect that consciousness might not simply be a function of brain size. In 1989 veterinarians in the United States were still being taught to ignore pain in animals. It took time for the extreme beliefs of behaviorism to fade. What right had we to call someone slothful, or use the phrase monkey business? How could we know the time-scale of a sloth? And why should humans have a monopoly on consciousness? My dog didn’t just wag his tail and lick my face when I appeared, but actually loved me. I soon realized I was not cut out to be a biologist, as the opposite seemed equally inappropriate to me.

Sailing from China and Hawaii into the unbridged arms of the Golden Gate, it arrived aboard vessels bearing rich cargoes, hopeful immigrants, and infected vermin. ![]() Across the Pacific came an unexpected import, bubonic plague. But the harbor would not be safe for long. The wharf bristled with masts and smokestacks from as many as a thousand sailing ships and steamers arriving each year. It had a pompous new skyline with skyscrapers nearly twenty stories tall, grand hotels, and Victorian mansions on Nob Hill.
