Description

A gripping and gruesome retelling of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, brought to life for a new generation of readers by Carnegie Medal winning author Tanya Landman. This thrilling gothic tale of hubris gone badly wrong tells the story of a young man's search for the secret of the spark of life, leading to a horrific experiment in which he creates a gigantic creature from dismembered body parts. Rejected by his creator, the initially gentle creature turns monstrous when his desire to find companionship and love are thwarted. Tanya Landman revisits Mary Shelley's classic Gothic horror story, bringing to life the characters in an accessible format that more readers can enjoy. Suitable for readers aged 11+, this book is a worthwhile read for those who enjoy horror and science fiction.
