About this book

An Egyptologist's obsession with resurrecting the mummified Queen Tera draws his daughter and her suitor into a web of ancient magic, occult ritual, and mounting supernatural dread. From the author of Dracula, this eerie tale blends archaeology, romance, and horror as the boundary between the living and the ancient dead grows dangerously thin. Rich in atmosphere and Victorian fascination with Egypt, The Jewel of Seven Stars builds to a chilling climax of hubris and terror. A classic of mummy fiction that influenced countless films, it showcases Stoker's gift for combining scientific curiosity with primal fear, delivering a haunting story of forbidden knowledge and the perils of disturbing the dead.

Available edition: text of Project Gutenberg eBook #3781. The PDF has 230 pages; the EPUB is reflowable. Project Gutenberg credits and license are kept.

About the author

Bram Stoker

Bram Stoker (1847-1912) was an Irish writer and, for nearly three decades, business manager of London's Lyceum Theatre. Though he wrote several novels and short-story collections, his reputation rests entirely on Dracula, whose blend of folklore, travelogue, and Victorian dread has never gone out of print.
