| This second title in the four-book paperback original series--Dean Koontz's Frankenstein--is a brilliant re-imagining of the classic story that only world-renowned and New York Times bestselling author could conceive, bringing the two hundred-year-old "monster," a literate, mysterious loner, to modern day New Orleans on the trail of his creator. |

From the Publisher:
When Victor's latest creations, an army of engineered killers set loose in modern-day New Orleans, begin to exceed his expectations and exhibit logistical and analytical skills, he plans to eliminate the entire race, a plan that backfires into humankind's ultimate nightmare. Original. |
Annotation:
This thriller/horror novel continues the story launched in DEAN KOONTZ'S FRANKENSTEIN: PRODIGAL SON, in which both Victor Frankenstein (now Victor Helios) and his disfigured but decidedly intelligent monster, Deucalion, have survived into our century. In this installment, Deucalion and two New Orleans police detectives confront Victor Helios's army of genetically engineered psychopaths, now undergoing grotesque mutations and no longer responsive to Victor's orders.

Author Bio
Dean R. Koontz
Along with Stephen King, Koontz is the preeminent horror writer of his age, selling millions and millions of books worldwide. Koontz had a horrific childhood; his father was an abusive alcoholic and his mother was mentally unstable, and they both actively discouraged him from pursuing a writing career. However, when the 12-year-old Koontz won an essay contest, the seed was planted. He studied education and was a high school English teacher from 1967 to 1969, at which point he began writing full time. At the end of the '90s, Dean Koontz has written nearly 80 books of suspense or horror.
