Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. A dying fire flickers in a crumbling French chateau as a nobleman weighs his soul against the promise of immortality. Set against the turbulent backdrop of the French Revolution, this eighteenth century novel draws readers into a world where the grandeur of European aristocracy is undone by fate, ambition, and the lure of the supernatural. The protagonist's journey from privilege to peril is marked by philosophical dilemmas that pierce the heart of Enlightenment-era fiction, as he grapples with the cost of eternal life and the burdens it imposes on those he loves. The narrative unfolds with gothic influence, blending historical adventure fiction with a deep exploration of moral conflict. The story's European setting is rendered with exquisite detail, capturing both the beauty and the brutality of an age in upheaval. Shadows lengthen over ballrooms and battlefields alike, as the protagonist is confronted by forces both worldly and otherworldly. The supernatural immortality theme is not merely a fantastical device, but a lens through which the downfall of aristocratic ideals and the fragility of human virtue are starkly revealed. What sets this work apart is its unflinching examination of conscience and consequence. The moral dilemma at its core is timeless, inviting readers to consider the price of ambition and the meaning of redemption. The prose is elegant yet charged with tension, providing an immersive experience for those who appreciate classic British literature with philosophical depth and gothic undertones. This book was out of print for decades and is now republished by Alpha Editions. It has been restored for today's and future generations. This edition is not just a reprint - it's a collector's item and a cultural treasure. For general readers, collectors, and admirers of philosophical fiction, this is a rare opportunity to reclaim a significant work from the Enlightenment era, brought back to life with care and respect for its enduring power. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
