A Graphic Novel

Mary Shelley found the inspiration for Frankenstein while staying on the shores of Lake Geneva with Percy Shelley, Lord Byron and other friends, when Byron suggested they hold a ghost story competition. She was just eighteen at the time. It was published in 1818 and went on to become one of the best-known Gothic horror stories of all time. It is brought to life in this graphic adaptation by Pete Katz's illustrations.

Mary Shelley's compelling story of a scientist horrified by his own creation--and the monster's revenge--is now vividly illustrated and faithfully retold in graphic-novel form!
Stunned by his mother's tragic death, Victor Frankenstein becomes obsessed with discovering the deepest mysteries of creation--and the secret of bringing dead matter to life. Gathering materials from graveyards and slaughterhouses, he successfully fashions a giant of superhuman strength. But, horrified at the monster he has brought into existence, he flees, leaving it to fend for itself. How will the creature react to being abandoned by its creator? Mary Shelley's groundbreaking horror story will captivate readers in this spectacular graphic-novel retelling.
 
In addition to the novel, this edition includes a biography of Mary Shelley, scientific discoveries at the time the original novel was written, a listing of Frankenstein movies, and footnotes to explain difficult words and ideas.
