Through a mysterious ability he calls 'star-roving,' Standing leaves behind the suffocating walls of San Quentin and journeys across time, space, and countless lives he has lived before. From the courts of medieval Europe to the deserts of ancient civilizations, from the thrill of exploration to the depths of human cruelty, each vision reveals another fragment of his boundless soul. First published in 1915 under the title The Jacket, The Star Rover is Jack London's bold exploration of reincarnation, freedom, and the unbreakable power of the human spirit. Blending prison drama, adventure, and metaphysical reflection, this haunting novel invites readers to question the limits of reality.

His breakthrough came with The Call of the Wild (1903), followed by other notable works such as White Fang (1906) and The Sea-Wolf (1904). London traveled extensively, and his experiences inspired many of his stories.
