Explore "The Green Odyssey" by Philip José Farmer on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
After much puffing and panting, muttered encouragements to each other, / and occasional cursing, they finally reached the summit of the tallest / hill. Abruptly, they found themselves facing a clearing which ran / around its crown. Directly ahead of them was a forest of totem poles, / all gleaming palely in the moonlight. Beyond it was the dark yawning of / a large cave.
Green walked out from the shadows of the branches to take a closer / look. When he came back he said, "There's a little hut by the side of / the cave. I looked in the window. An old woman's asleep in it. But her / cats are wide-awake and likely to wake her up."
