Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Guy Newell Boothby, an influential Australian novelist, is renowned for his sensational fiction during the late 19th century, particularly the Dr Nikola series featuring an occultist criminal mastermind. His work often blends elements of Gothic horror and adventure, as seen in "Pharos, the Egyptian," which explores themes of curses and supernatural revenge in an Egyptian setting. Boothby, who spent much of his life in England, was mentored by Rudyard Kipling and left a lasting impression on literary figures like George Orwell.
