Round 14


In Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, after Khan sets the Genesis device to explode, he speaks the following, To the last, I will grapple with thee... from Hell's heart, I stab at thee! For hate's sake, I spit my last breath at thee! This snippet of dialog is taken from a very famous novel upon which the screenplay was based. In the beginning of the film, as the camera pans the Botany Bay's interior, we see books on a shelf, and one of the books is this famous novel. What is the name of the novel?



Remember, you must PM your answer to me no later than 6PM tomorrow.

If you fail to submit an answer, it's the same as getting it wrong, and you lose a smiley.

That's it for me!  Time for a peaceful rest! 

I'm surprised I hung on this long with that damn bag on my head!

Just as well.  I'm going out of town tomorrow and wouldn't have been able to play anyway!

It's been fun Antares.

Thanks.
