The Mummy!
A Tale of the Twenty-Second Century
Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
An undead pharaoh. A future run by queens. A whirlwind of steam-powered inventions, political chaos, and moral reckoning.
First released in 1827, The Mummy! A Tale of the Twenty-Second Century is a dazzling fusion of science fiction, gothic drama, and biting satire. A reanimated mummy named Cheops becomes an unlikely guide through a world of artificial organs, flying machines, and radical social reform. Wildly imaginative, fast-paced, and strangely relevant, this is classic speculative fiction at its boldest and most bizarre.
