The Jewel of Seven Stars

From the author of Dracula comes one of the first mummy novels ever written.

An Egyptologist discovers a tomb at the exact moment his daughter is born.

In a house full of Egyptian antiquities-

A jeweled scarab, mummified cat, and severed hand ...

Unexplained claw marks and comas ...

A mysterious stranger's wild tales of a hidden tomb and ancient warnings ...

Of violent deaths to everyone who sought the jewel ...

All linked to a forgotten queen's 5,000-year quest for reincarnation ...

Malcolm Ross, pulled by his adoration of Margaret Trelawny, finds himself embroiled in a centuries old story that challenges human logic.

Lovers of the supernatural, occult, and paranormal will enjoy this unique edition of Bram Stoker's The Jewel of the Seven Stars, which includes the novel's original 1903 ending as well as an abridged 1912 version.

About the Author
Stoker, Bram: - Irish author Bram Stoker (1847-1912), best known for writing Dracula (1897), studied mathematics at University of Dublin's Trinity College, graduating with honors in 1870. After a brief career at Dublin Castle as a civil servant with a side hustle as a theatre critic for the Dublin Evening Mail, Stoker became a long-time manager of the Lyceum Theater in London's West End as the personal assistant of Sir Henry Irving, a famous actor of that era. Stoker's first novel, The Primrose Path, was published in 1875, and his last, The Lair of the White Worm, in 1911. Stoker's fascination with Egyptology, mummification, and the supernatural is evident in The Jewel of Seven Stars, a Gothic horror story, the first edition of which had a somewhat ambiguous and tragic ending. When the second edition was published in 1912, Stoker had replaced the ending for a new happier one. Stoker died in London of exhaustion at sixty-four years old, leaving behind a wife, Florence, and son, Noel. His remains were cremated, and his urn is displayed at the Golders Green Crematorium and Mausoleum, keeping company with the likes of Sigmund Freud, Peter Sellers, and Keith Moon.
