Sinossi

How far would science go… before it becomes monstrous?

In The Island of Doctor Moreau, H. G. Wells explores the dark edges of human ambition and morality. After a shipwreck, Edward Prendick finds himself stranded on a remote island ruled by the mysterious Dr. Moreau—a scientist obsessed with reshaping life itself. But his subjects are no ordinary experiments… they are grotesque human-animal hybrids, living in fear, pain, and half-conscious rebellion.

Blending horror, science fiction, and ethical inquiry, this powerful novel confronts questions of identity, cruelty, and evolution. Wells creates a terrifying world that still resonates in today's age of genetic engineering and bioethics.

🧬 This edition includes:

The unabridged original 1896 text

Beautiful illustrations to enhance the immersive horror

A readable, clean format optimized for Kindle

💥 More relevant than ever, The Island of Doctor Moreau remains a must-read for fans of sci-fi, horror, and philosophical fiction.

    **Survival will unite two species that were once enemies…** 
    Tracy Bearclaw, an anthropologist dedicated to studying the extinct human race, has explored the harshest and most remote locations on Earth. Her world is turned upside down when her brother discovers an injured human right in their backyard. Driven by her passion for humanity, Tracy ventures into the wilds of Olympic National Park in search of a reclusive human clan. 
    Mitchell grew up hearing tales of the brutal Great War between shifters and humans. As the leader of his clan, he must bury his personal feelings; their survival depends on him—and on staying hidden. His resolve to put his clan first is tested when he meets Tracy Bearclaw, a tenacious bear-shifter. 
    Forced into an uneasy alliance with Tracy, Mitchell faces a crucial decision that could either doom the last remnants of humanity or save them. It doesn’t help that Tracy has ignited feelings within Mitchell that he never thought possible—love for a shifter. 
    Can these former enemies find a love strong enough to bridge their differences, or will the greed of a deadly adversary shatter their fragile trust and destroy the last of the humans once and for all?

    Enter the bazaar of the bizarre where fate and fortunes are for sale in this high-stakes magical adventure across a London not quite like our own, perfect for fans of Neverwhere and The Night Circus. 
     
    Below Covent Garden lies the Untermarkt, where anything and everything has a price: a lover’s first blush, a month of honesty, a wisp of fortune. As a child, Deri was sold to one of the Market’s most powerful merchants. Now, after years of watchful servitude, Deri finally spots a chance to buy not only his freedom but also his place amongst the Market’s elite when he stumbles into the path of a runaway princess desperate to sell her royal destiny. 
     
    But news of the missing princess and her wayward destiny spreads. Royal enforcers and Master Merchants alike are after it. Outmanoeuvring them all would all be hard enough had Deri not just also met the love of his life, a young man called Owain, whose employers are using the Market for their own nefarious schemes. 
     
    Deri soon finds that the price of selling the royal destiny, making a name for himself, and saving the man he loves is dear. The cost of it all might just change the destiny of London forever.
