Synopsis
The Frankenstein story is updated to the 21st century by the great American storyteller Dean Koontz. Now someone new is playing god. The legendary monster has survived the centuries to become a haunted and heroic figure dedicated to battling the truly monstrous evil that has also survived the years: the cruel genius who gave him life, Dr Frankenstein. His name is Deucalion. Having failed to kill his maker, scarred and strange, he lives with monks in Tibet until news reaches him of the next generation of Dr Frankenstein's monsters. He travels to New Orleans where they are wreaking havoc, and where a cool, tough cop, Detective Carson O'Connor, doesn't know she is pursuing killers that are more - and less - than human. But Deucalion does. Dean Koontz, the master storyteller, creates a bold new legend.

Customer Reviews

Dean Koontz ? Still writing ???
This was an awesome sequel to the first book in the Trilogy. Unfortunately, after almost 3 years, I would really like to read the rest of the story. Is it still coming? As much as I enjoy Dean Koontz's books, I will not buy another until he produces the ending to this story. I do not undertsand why he has cranked out several unrelated books since writing #2 and left us hanging here with an unfinished story.....
I am beginning to feel ripped off as if I bought a book missing 33% of it's pages. I see no difference.

When is book 3 due for release?
As the title asks my friends, when is that book being released cos I cant wait to devour the bugger!

I just cant wait..........
I have re read the two existing books in preparation for the release of Book 3, just to be frustrated by the delay in publication, so I may even read them again. One thing that hasn't been mentioned so far is that although Dean Koontz has the main authorship for the trilogy they are co written in the style of "Koontz" by Ed Gorman. Patterson also does this with his "Women's Club" books. In this case it isn't a problem as the books are great, they do "throw back" to more early Koontz style than some of his more current books with a "recipe" namely the "ODD" books ( A "Good Guy" in a dilemma), The Husband, and of course The GOOD GUY, I wonder where he got that title? The Frankenstein Books are a great unique read. Dont miss. The others are OK but very formulaic.
