Terror. The word conjures up images of ghosts, monsters, half-creatures and phantoms. But terror doesn't always stem from the paranormal. It can turn up in unexpected ways in everyday life, clutching at our heart with icy fingers! Feel the blind panic of Hansard, a young student of Forestry, when he finds himself in the grip of a maneating tiger; the desperation of a Navy officer and his comrades in a slowly flooding chamber of a sinking submarine; or the terror of two children stuck at the bottom of a cave, several miles under the earth, and unable to find a way out. Written by masters of the genre and compiled by Ruskin Bond, here are gems from Sylvia Green, R.L. Stevenson, C.A. Kincaid and Aubrey Wade, among others. An Underground Walk is a collection of stories sure to keep you at the edge of your seat.

Ruskin Bond

Born in Kasauli in 1934, Ruskin Bond grew up in Jamnagar, Dehradun, New Delhi and Shimla. His first novel, The Room on the Roof, written when he was seventeen, received the John Llewellyn Rhys Memorial Prize in 1957.

Since then he has written over five hundred short stories, essays and novellas (some included in the collections Dust on the Mountains and Classic Ruskin Bond) and more than forty books for children.

He received the Sahitya Akademi Award for English writing in India in 1993, the Padma Shri in 1999, and the Delhi government's Lifetime Achievement Award in 2012.

He was awarded the Sahitya Akademi's Bal Sahitya Puraskar for his 'total contribution to children's literature' in 2013 and was honoured with the Padma Bhushan in 2014. He lives in Landour, Mussoorie, with his extended family. He has regaled generations of readers for decades.
