5.0 out of five stars possibly Wells’ Finest Novel, February 5, 2004
By Gary F. Taylor “GFT” (Biloxi, MS USA) See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER) (VINE VOICE) (REAL NAME) This review is from: The Island of Dr. Moreau (Classic) (Paperback) though it is less frequently read than such Wells novels as THE WAR OF THE WORLDS, the basic story of THE ISLAND OF DR. MOREAU is well recognized through some number of very loose film adjustments. Pendrick, a British scientist, is shipwrecked and by chance finds himself on an lonely island where Dr. Moreau and his helper Montgomery are engaged in a series of experiments. They’re attempting to transform animals into manlike beings.Wells, a social reformer, was a didactic writer, and his novels reflect his thoughts and theories about humanity. Most of Wells writing concerns (either directly or covertly) social class, but while this exists in MOREAU it’s less the basic theme than an undercurrent. At core, the novel concerns the then newly advanced hypothesis of natural selection and then works to relate how that hypothesis impacts man’s idea of God. Wells frequently touched upon this, and in some number of novels he broaches the thought that if mankind evolved "up" it may just as easily evolve "down," but nowhere in his work is this line of thought more obviously and exactly seen than here.At times Wells’ motivation to teach his reader can overwhelm; at times it can become so subtle that it’s nothing short of totally obscure. But in THE ISLAND OF DR. MOREAU, Wells achieves a perfect balance of the two extremes, going so far as to balance the characters in such a way that not the narrator emerges as completely sympathetic. It’s a extraordinary achievement, and in this sense I think about MOREAU possibly the best of Wells work: the novel is as interesting for the story it tells as it’s for still relevant themes it considers.It is something of an oddity among Wells work, for while Wells frequently included elements of horror and savagery in his novels, MOREAU isn’t so much horrific as it’s disturbingly gruesome and sometimes intentionally distasteful. This isn’t really a book than you may be able to read , then put away: it lingers in your mind in a most unsettling way. Strongly suggested.GFT, Reviewer

4.0 out of five stars again, don’t WATCH THE MOVIE FIRST!!, April 30, 2001
By Michael Legg (Rolling Meadows, IL United States) See all my reviews This review is from: The Island of Dr. Moreau (Dover Thrift Editions) (Paperback) This book is less recognized than Wells’ other works like The War of the Worlds and The Time Machine, but in many ways it exceeds these other, more liked works. This novel is a story generally about the nature of humanity. What is it that makes us people? What, exactly, separates man from the beasts? Wells’ insidious Dr. Moreau is the ideal character to explore these questions as he’s no conscience. As you read this book you find yourself recognizing more with the "beasts" than with the Dr. Or his assistant; and you find yourself wondering if or not the noble beasts are in fact more human than the human characters. This work is decades before its’ time; as today genetic research and animal rights are garnering more attention and headlines. I believe Wells was somehow able to see these issues decades ago when he wrote this story; and it remains one of the most salient writings on the subject to date. I heartily support this book for any fan of science fiction. Enjoy!

3.0 out of five stars Cheap reprint from public domain, August 27, 2007
By B. T. Denyer “Web designer” (San Francisco, CA) See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME) () This review is from: The Island Of Dr. Moreau (Paperback) Filiquarian Publishing, LLC published this book under the idea that it’s in “public domain position.” Meaning, it isn’t any better than you could find online. The book is readable, but stress (bold or italics) are done by an underscore before and after the word(s). Example: “_His_ is the lightning flash, we sang. _His_ is the deep, salt sea.” (page 82) To me, it’s annoying to read it this way. You sometimes find extra quotation marks and a double dash ( ) in the place of an ellipsis (.). On page 41, you get all of the above.

The attaching is right up there with self published titles. The cover is as basic as it gets, and has no text on the spine (see picture.) The back cover has just a UPC barcode. On my copy, the glue they used for the spine has been pressed out and made a rather weird adhere. By weird, I mean cheap looking.

Anyway, if you need an inexpensive copy of this book and do not care about the bindery or text issues, then this book is for you.
