    About this ebook

    British writer Marie Corelli was among the most popular novelists of her era, earning the appreciation of even Queen Victoria herself. Within the first few pages of the addictive reincarnation romance Ziska, it's easy to understand why. A tale spanning centuries, this novel has something for everyone: gothic supernatural horror, ancient Egyptian folklore, a pair of star-crossed lovers, and even some satirical skewering of the pretensions of the British upper classes.

    Marie Corelli

    Marie Corelli (1 May 1855 – 21 April 1924) was an English novelist and mystic. She enjoyed a period of great literary success from the publication of her first novel in 1886 until World War I. Sales of Corelli's novels exceeded the combined sales of popular contemporaries, including Arthur Conan Doyle, H. G. Wells, and Rudyard Kipling, although critics often derided her work as "the favourite of the common multitude". (Wikipedia)
