Working tirelessly in his secret laboratory, concocting a potion that would tear at the core of what makes a man human, he eventually succeeds--but only halfway.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInstead of separating the good and evil halves, Jekyll isolates only the latter. What seems at first a relief to the doctor becomes a nightmare as he loses control of the transformation. His friends feel Jekyll will waste away and fear the worst.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCan Jekyll undo what he has done? Or will it change things forever?\"It is good to see that C. E. L. Welsh's adaptation of the story for the Campfire  Graphic Classic Novel series does nothing to dumb down the book and its themes. It  follows the well-known story of the good doctor who discovers a drug that to his  horror unleashed the evil beast inside him, and who is unable to control his other  self closely and sets up the moral questions the story raises with some clarity.  ... This is a dark story and that darkness is emphasized in the illustrations of  Lalit Kumar Sharma.\" \u003cbr\u003e— Jack Goodstein, \u003ci\u003eBlogcritics\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"I \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003ehighly recommend\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e Campfire’s comics.

Stevenson's most famous work is the classic pirate tale \u003ci\u003eTreasure Island\u003c\/i\u003e, which was published in 1883. Stevenson later created an infamous, but very intriguing, character in \u003ci\u003eThe Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde\u003c\/i\u003e, published in 1886.   In 1887, Stevenson headed for America. It was soon after this move that he took up his pen for \u003ci\u003eThe Master of Ballantrae\u003c\/i\u003e, a novel which is considered one of his best works. Stevenson died in 1894. While best known for writing tales of action and adventure, he is also remembered as an accomplished poet and essayist.","brand":"Campfire","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46304236863717,"sku":"NP9789380028491","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9789380028491.jpg?v=1767741694","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/es\/products\/the-strange-case-of-dr-jekyll-and-mr-hyde-isbn-9789380028491","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
