Publisher Description

Bram Stoker (1847-1912)
Abraham 'Bram' Stoker was born in Dublin, Ireland. He spent most of his early years bed-ridden with an unknown illness, but later made a full recovery. After being educated in a private school Stoker attended Trinity College, Dublin from 1864 to 1870 and graduated with honours as a B.A. in Mathematics. His interest in theatre led him to become a theatre critic for the Dublin Evening Mail. Although Stoker is best known today as the author of the 1897 Gothic novel, Dracula, during his lifetime he was better known as the personal assistant of actor Henry Irving and business manager of the Lyceum Theatre in London, which Irving owned. After suffering from a number of strokes, Stoker died in April 1912. The Bram Stoker Award is named in his honour and is given in recognition of "superior achievement" in horror writing.

The Jewel of Seven Stars Reviews

3.5
“Surprisingly, I find myself wanting to say that I thought this book was a more compelling read than Dracula. The first-person narrative was much easier to digest than Dracula’s epistolary formatting. I also loved how much ancient Egyptian history was included in the writing. On top of that, there were fictional narratives of adventures and scavenging in Egypt that — as they were told and unfurled — made the plot really interesting and suspenseful. Neither of the two endings were particularly satisfying to me, but I definitely prefer the climax and brutality of the first version.”
