About this ebook

'Nothing is so painful to the human mind as a great and sudden change.'

Obsessed with wishing to create new life, scientist Victor Frankenstein scours graveyards to stitch together body parts in a fevered attempt to bring a man to life.

Cast out by its maker, the creature forgoes love for vengeance and sets out to destroy everything Frankenstein holds dear.
