Paperback. Condición: New. A chilling addition to the acclaimed Haunted Library of Horror Classics series, complete with annotations and extra materialsWithin a decade of the 1818 publication of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, another Englishwoman invented a foundational work of science fiction. Seventeen-year-old Jane Webb Loudon took up the theme of reanimation, moved it three hundred years into the future, and applied it to Cheops, an ancient Egyptian mummy. Unlike Shelley's horrifying, death-dealing monster, this revivified creature bears the wisdom of the ages and is eager to share his insights with humanity. Cheops boards a hot-air balloon and travels to 22nd-century England, where he sets about remedying the ills of a corrupt government.In recounting Cheops' attempts to put the futuristic society to rights, the young author offers a fascinating portrait of the preoccupations of her own era as well as some remarkably prescient predictions of technological advances. The Mummy! envisions a world in which automatons perform surgery, undersea tunnels connect England and Ireland, weather-control devices provide crop irrigation, and messages are transmitted with the speed of cannonball fire. The first novel to feature the concept of a living mummy, this pioneering tale offers an engaging mix of comedy, politics, and science fiction.Other books in the Haunted Library of Horror Classics series:The Phantom of the Opera by Gaston LerouxThe Beetle by Richard MarshVathek by William BeckfordThe House on the Borderland by William Hope HodgsonThe Parasite and Other Tales of Terror by Arthur Conan DoyleOf One Blood by Pauline HopkinsThe King in Yellow by Robert W.
