Об электронной книге

Monsters created in laboratories, love triangles, pirate attacks, shipwrecks and damsels in distress. Arthur Maxon has way too much to deal with, but ultimately he bought it all on himself!

'The Monster Men' is a science-fiction novel by Edgar Rice Burroughs that depicts a scientist (Maxon) who wants to create artificial life. Set in the South Pacific, the story very much resembles H. G. Wells’ 'The Island of Dr. Moreau' and even Shelley’s 'Frankenstein'.

Burroughs explores the social theme of racial bettering, also known as eugenics, and the moral theme of having a soul. A work of vast imagination, fast-paced narration, and suspense-packed episodes, 'The Monster Men' is a gem in Burroughs’ fictional pantheon, recommended to fans of sci-fi and adventure fiction. Edgar Rice Burroughs (1875-1950) was an American author, best known for his novel ‘Tarzan of the Apes’ (1914) and its sequels as well as the Barsoom series. During World War II, he was one of the oldest U.S war correspondents. Tarzan and his adventures are loved by both young and old, and are evergreen classics. Many have watched at least one Tarzan tv series or movie with the most popular probably being the Disney animation film from 1999 and 'The Legend of Tarzan' from 2016 starring Alexander Skarsgård and Samuel L. Jackson.
