The Island of Dr. Moreau by H.G. Wells

adventurous dark tense medium-paced

4.5

This was a really thoughtful and creepy horror sci-fi story that explored the fuzzy line between human nature and animals that was written, I think, in the wake of the publication of Darwin’s ideas. The author really excelled at creating an eerie atmosphere full of tension and beautiful, terrifying imagery. I can’t wait to read more H.G. Wells!
