These, however, are generally treated as products of Magic rather than of science, as in ... The Jewel of Seven Stars (1903), in which an Egyptian princess, adept in an ancient science, rests in a form of Suspended Animation."

Lair of the W.W. LC#179-82 --c1911 25 66 74 (above)

EoF JC "(1911; full text ed Richard Dalby 1986), which confusedly evokes the downside of Goddess imagery through the eponymous Shapeshifter which possesses a glamorous lady (or vice versa), and attempts to infect a large cast with its venomous, accursed, erotic allure (> Worm/Wyrm)."

SFE3 JE/DRL "The Lair of the White Worm (1911; cut 1925; vt The Garden of Evil 1966), centres on an antediluvian and malignly intelligent serpent-like Monster obscurely linked to a secretly murderous woman; for the Lamia theme, see The Encyclopedia of Fantasy; this novel was very freely adapted for Ken Russell's film The Lair of the White Worm (1988)."
