"Frankenstein impresses us with a high idea of the author's original genius and happy power of expression." Sir Walter Scott
"Frankenstein, the genesis of the horror genre, began with friends gathered around a campfire telling ghost stories. For a modern generation raised on Goosebumps it's a little too good to be true." From Jake McAtee's Introduction
Dr. Frankenstein appears to embody the best of scientific knowledge. What could be more impressive than mastering chemistry and galvanism? But his fanatical experimentation exhibits the worst of human nature as well: pursuit of the divine at the expense of wisdom. Then the tables are turned, and Dr. Frankenstein tries to take life where he once gave it-for Dr. Frankenstein's Monster lives. The guilty Dr. Frankenstein and his universally abhorred creation are bound together in a frantic search for happiness and a normal existence, but death seems to follow the Creature.
Written in 1818 by an eighteen-year-old, this Canon Classic is a terrifying Gothic novel, a vivid product of the Romantic movement, and perhaps one of the first works of science fiction.

Most authentic book compilation on the Oregon Trail I ever read. The way the diaries are brought to life from over 170 years ago is a remarkable achievement. Top book of year so far for me for today June 01, 2024 review Candice
This author is a breathe of fresh air in a world of lies and coverups. He brings ancient writings and new science to bring light to mankind. In this amazing work, the well known plato stories from antiquity are now put alongside this new discovery of tablets from beginning of time. This is the most complete explanation of Atlantis every brought to the public. Shame on the governments of Egypt and the world for hiding WHO BUILT THE PHYRAMIDS OF GIZA AND THE SPHINX. Once I read this book I knew why they hid this knowledge. They don't want a population to know how great the world used to be compared to know.
Randomly stumbled upon this book and I am shocked that I haven’t heard about it before. It’s hands down the best story I’ve read in years. People need to read this book. It needs to be turned into a book. This story is just plain awsome. M
This soulful book of personal poetry brought me into the past and into the present---and into my heart.
Read the first book and this 2nd one did not disappoint! Loved every chapter. More please!
