The second volume of the complete adventures of Dr. Nikola
Leonaur have brought the complete Dr.Nikola stories together in two
complementing volumes available in soft cover and hard cover with
dust jacket. The three books in this second volume are The Lust of
Hate, Dr Nikola's Experiment & Farewell, Nikola. The dark,
intense visage of Dr.Nikola is a clear indication of the nature of
the man. This is a highly intellectual being whose life and studies
have taken him far beyond the limits of conventional academia or
the laws of normal society. This is a driven man, ruthless,
dangerous, mysterious and a delver into mysteries-obsessed with
discovering the secret of eternal life for himself. His own
objectives govern all and sudden death is no stranger. Guy
Boothby's Dr.Nikola adventures continue to fascinate readers and
enthusiasts of crime and mystery fiction because-in the manner of
Raffles, the gentleman cracksman-here is character far removed from
the uncompromising goodness of Holmes and Watson or the
uncompromising evil of Professor Moriarty. Nikola is a complex
personality-an anti-hero to continually surprise us, to dislike,
fear, intrigue and admire by turns.
