The Island of Doctor Moreau
H G Wells
Edward Prendick thinks he's been saved when he is found adrift after shipwreck. But he soon finds himself exposed to fresh horrors as his journey takes him to the Island of Dr Moreau!
Shunned by society, Moreau and his assistant Montgomery perform acts of cruel surgery on animals and populate the island with the misbegotten results. Will Predick survive his time on the island? Will he return to civilised society with his sanity intact?
Written by HG Wells in 1896, the title earned widespread outrage and condemnation by critics and the media... and as a natural result is by far his best selling book to date.
