Rudyard Kipling wrote two separate endings to The Light That Failed, a happy ending for the version published in Lippincott's Monthly Magazine in January 1890 and an unhappy ending for the version published in book form a few months later.
I would like to find the text of the happy ending. Does anyone know where I may be able to find it?

It would be great if we can had Kipling's The Light That Failed added to the collection, even better if we can have both versions of it. The book itself is impossible to find... The only place I know that has it is the public library. None of the bookstores around me has it, and there's LOTS of bookstores around where I live.
It would be wonderful if we can have access to this great book online.
:wave: Hi there new deity on the board :D, welcome!
As a minor offering I looked into Project Gutenberg database and looky (http://www.gutenberg.org/etext/2876) what I found! Hope to see you around (you've got yourself a very nice username - j/k :p), seriously now, you might like joining our book club (http://www.online-literature.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=15).
