About this title

Book Description:

Mary Shelley's Gothic classic reinvented for a new generation

From the Back Cover:

Frankenstein . . . his very name conjures up images of plundered graves, secret laboratories, electrical experiments and reviving the dead.

Within these pages, the maddest doctor of them all and his demented disciples once again delve into the forbidden Secrets of Life, as science fiction meets horror when the world's most famous creature lives again!

The Mammoth Book of Frankenstein collects together twenty-five electrifying accounts of cursed creation that are guaranteed to spark your interest - with classics from the pulp magazines by Robert Bloch and Manly Wade Wellman, modern masterpieces from Ramsey Campbell, Dennis Etchison, R. Chetwynd-Hayes, David J. Schow, Stephen Volk and Karl Edward Wagner, and original contributions from John Brunner, Adrian Cole, Basil Copper, Jo Fletcher, Daniel Fox, Nancy Kilpatrick, Roberta Lannes, Graham Masterson, Paul McAuley, Brian Mooney, Lisa Morton, Kim Newman, Guy N. Smith and Michael Marshall Smith.

Plus you're sure to get a charge from three complete novels: The Hound of Frankenstein by Peter Tremayne, The Dead End by David Case, and Mary W. Shelley's original masterpiece Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus.

As an electrical storm rages overhead, the generators are charged up, and beneath the sheet a cold form awaits its miraculous rebirth. Now it's time to throw that switch and discover all that Man Was Never Meant to Know . . .
