Enthralled by his own exquisite portrait, Dorian Gray exchanges his soul for eternal youth and beauty. Influenced by his friend Lord Henry Wotton, he is drawn into a corrupt double life; indulging his desires in secret while remaining a gentleman in the eyes of polite society. Only his portrait bears the traces of his decadence. The novel was a succès de scandale, and the book was later used as evidence against Wilde at the Old Bailey in 1895. It has lost none of its power to fascinate and disturb.

Perfect Narrator!
Revisado: 05-16-20
Some might say I am extremely biased, given my adoration for Ben Barnes, but I promise you, I've judged this fairly. Mr. Barnes is a perfect narrator for this, his voice is complimentary to Wilde's story. He brings us back to Dorian Gray's life and times, the highs and lows, the horror. It's a rich story and he reads it perfectly. I was intrigued from the very beginning to the very end. I'm not a big audiobook person, but I love this. Bravo, Ben!

Henry Stuart, Duke of Gloucester, the youngest brother of King Charles II is a handsome man with sound principles. When the 20-year-old prince contracts smallpox in 1660, his life takes a decidedly sinister turn. Obsessed with Henry from afar, Contessa Griselda di Cuorenero -one of the Devil's concubines - turns him into a vampire and plunges him into the world of night. But Henry soon discovers that not all horrors are of the paranormal kind.

Fantastic.

I first read the book upon its release a few years ago, but when I got this audiovook, I decided a reread was most certainly in order. A very enjoyable few sessions of listening and reading a supernatural history book. Ms. Zuvich is well versed in history and it shines through in this novel.
I enjoyed her take on the supernatural elements and I dearly hope that she will someday write a sequel. I would love more fiction from her. Ms.Zuvich proves that you can take history and you can take the supernatural and you can mix them to make a delightful story.
