johnsebastian3 's review for:
The Island of Dr. Moreau
by H.G. Wells
As soon as I finished the first chapter of the book, I knew that It would be one that I could not put down. This was one of the best Science fiction books I've read in a very long time, and it being a classic, am surprised that I hadn't read it until now. I found this book by chance; it was being thrown out and discarded in my local library. I picked it up years ago, and only now gave it a read. And wow, was it a creepy spine tingling tale. Everything was described (especially the Beast men) in such detail that I had no choice but to cringe at the image that my mind would create. It was truly haunting, and couldn't imagine how terrifying the situation would have been in real life. Come to think of it, this whole book is not entirely out of the realm of possibility, and this fact is what made it all the scarier. On more than once occasion, Wells would invite you to imagine such scenario as the one Edward was presently experiencing, and boy did that make my skin crawl. This was a fantastic classic, and would highly suggest to anyone who is interested in science fiction.
