The Island of Dr. Moreau is one of the first books by H.G. Wells that I have read. I was not as interested in the stories themselves, but the way he writes is just amazing. They are pretty complex and definitely different from anything else that I have read before. The Island of Dr. Moreau is probably my least favorite. I did not care for most of the characters Edward Prendick encountered, and I thought the experiments Dr. Moreau was performing were quite gruesome. The whole story is just kind of strange. However, I did like the ending and how Edward was able to get back home. If you like Science Fiction and books with strange and different story lines, then I would definitely recommend this one. Personally, I tend to lean towards more realistic books.
