The Beetle
About this book
The thrilling classic tale of a strange and sinister creature that stalks its prey mercilessly and changes shape at will
From the mysterious depths of Egypt comes a creature "born neither of God nor man." This shape-shifting being has made its way to London seeking revenge for the crimes that have been committed against the order of its ancient religion—and the primary target of this merciless and relentless terror is politician Paul Lessingham. As panic spreads throughout the city, it falls to Paul and his friends to stop the beast once and for all.
Â
Published the same year as the horror classic Dracula, The Beetle originally outsold Bram Stoker's famous book. Richard Marsh's story is a dark mirror of England at the end of the century, a tale of Victorian horror and mystery with a monster as dreadful and elusive as any in literature.
