While he is best known for his stories of adventure in the outdoors, such as White Fang and The Call of the Wild, London also wrote a significant body of science fiction, including the caveman novel, Before Adam (1906), the post-holocaust novel, The Scarlet Plague (1912), and The Star Rover, a book about a convict under torture who can project his mind to far times and places, which profoundly influenced Robert E. Howard. The Iron Heel (1907) is a major work of dystopian fiction, the product of London's Socialism, about a fascist-capitalist tyranny in the United States in the 20th century and its struggle with the enslaved proletariat. As such it is an important ancestor to Zamyatin's We and Orwell's 1984.
