Marie Corelli

Ziska Marie Corelli

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.
