Shipwrecked in the South Pacific and left adrift, Edward Prendick is rescued and cast ashore on a remote, nameless island. It is home to the brilliant, exiled Doctor Moreau, his drunken assistant Montgomery, and a crowd of strange, half-human islanders who chant a Law they dare not break. As Prendick uncovers what Moreau has been doing behind the locked door of his compound, he finds himself trapped in a world where the line between man and beast is terrifyingly thin. H. G. Wells's 1896 masterpiece of science fiction and horror is a haunting tale of science without conscience.
