Publisher's Synopsis
THE LEGEND OF FRANKENSTEIN continues.... In all the world, one monster towers over all. This is the nameless creature created by Victor Frankenstein. This is the Thing that should not live... but does! You've read Mary Shelley's world-famous novel, "Frankenstein, or the Modern Prometheus" and you seen the nameless creature created by Victor Frankenstein. But what happened next? THE LEGEND OF FRANKENSTEIN Book III, MONSTER OF THE EAST, provides that answer. In the first two parts of the Trilogy, the Monster found a new purpose to live and sought out allies to assist him. Along the way, he also clashed with ghouls, mad scientists, and maniacs. Now, follow the Monster as he continues to search for the knowledge, the means, and the funds necessary to create a mate with which to share the world. Hunted, haunted, rejected by the society of men, the Monster of Frankenstein forms a partnership with a diabolical doctor. When this partnership fails, he travels from Europe to America, hoping to find the knowledge, the means, and the funds necessary to create a mate with which to share the world. Finding himself at last in old San Francisco, he learns of a strange cult within the back alleys of Chinatown-a cult whose practice of reanimating the dead might equal that of Victor Frankenstein! And then, in an epic-length tale, the Monster of Frankenstein travels across the Pacific to China and Tibet, seeking out this cult of necromancers. Along the way, he clashes with the vampiric Kiang-Shi and a secret society bent on subjugating the world. What follows places the Monster of in the middle of a war between these rival factions! With links to Perry Lake's earlier LEGEND OF DRACULA series, THE LEGEND OF FRANKENSTEIN forms an epic saga of historical horror and sinister schemes in concord with Mary Shelley's original classic.
