Overview

When a young woman called Margaret hears strange noises from her father's bedroom, she investigates only to find him unconscious and bloodied on the floor of his room. She follows his previously-written instructions to, in such a situation, not move the body and watch it carefully until he awakens. Not knowing what to do, she calls her new boyfriend Malcolm and asks him to help her with the diabolical situation. "The Jewel of Seven Stars" is a 1903 horror novel by Irish writer Bram Stoker that deals with such themes as imperialism, feminism, and societal progress. Abraham "Bram" Stoker (1847 - 1912) was an Irish author most famous for his 1897 Gothic novel "Dracula", a seminal book that continues to influence the vampire genre in print and film to this day. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.
