About This Book
The Washington Post called this "a dizzying magic show of a novel,
chock-a-block with all the props of Victorian sensation fiction: seances,
multiple narrators, a family curse, doubles, a lost notebook, wraiths,
and disembodied spirits; a haunted house, awesome mad-doctor machinery,
a mausoleum, and ghoulish horrors; a misunderstood scientist, impossible
disappearances; the sins of the fathers visited upon their descendants."
Winner of the 1996 World Fantasy Award, The Prestige is even better than
that, because unlike many Victorians, Priest writes crisp, unencumbered
prose. And anyone who's ever thrilled to the arcing electricity in the
"It's alive!" scene in Frankenstein will relish the "special effects" by
none other than Nikola Tesla.
