McSweeney’s Mammoth Treasury of Thrilling Tales (1st Edition), edited by Michael Chabon, is a celebrated anthology that revives the spirit of the classic adventure story. Published in 2003 by McSweeney’s, the collection features twenty original short stories from some of the most acclaimed contemporary writers — including Stephen King, Neil Gaiman, Michael Crichton, Aimee Bender, Kelly Link, and Sherman Alexie.

Chabon’s vision for the anthology was to reignite the tradition of plot-driven, page-turning fiction, reminiscent of the pulp magazines and adventure tales of the early 20th century. Each story blends literary craft with thrilling elements — from crime, mystery, and horror to science fiction and the fantastical.

The result is a diverse and energetic collection that proves literary fiction and entertainment can coexist. McSweeney’s Mammoth Treasury of Thrilling Tales stands as both a tribute to storytelling’s golden age and a fresh take on what a “thrilling tale” can mean in modern literature.
