Another Jekyll, Another Hyde

This one has been sitting on my bookshelf for a while and so I noticed it the other day and thought- 'why not?'. This is a retelling of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde in modern times. It is set at the Marlowe school for the rich and elite. Thomas Goodman-Brown is the golden boy of the school. But something has happened to him on a night he was at his girlfriend Belle's house. Her governess did something to him. Now Belle has disappeared and Thomas is slowly losing control of his own mind. He doesn't know what is wrong with him, only that his new step-mother is not what she seems. He begins taking a drug called 'W' that a mysterious girl at a club gave him and this only makes things worse. Thomas begins hearing a voice in his head, and that voice is one angry bird! Edward is slowly taking over Thomas's body and doing not so nice things. Thomas doesn't know how this is happening, but must figure out a way to defeat Edward and his evil mother Nicola. The evil is an ancient one and will take everything in Thomas's power to overcome it. He will lose friends along the way, but for him, this is a matter of life or death. I believe this book is the third in a series, although it stands alone. There is much backstory that I assume is explained in either Another Faust  or Another Pan. There are enough references to make me want to read both of these other tales. This book won't be for everyone. It changes voice quite often and this may confuse younger readers. But anyone familiar with the source material will enjoy the modern day twists. Happy reading my friends!
