Dean Koontz's Frankenstein
In this modern take on a classic, Victor Frankenstein, now Victor Helios, continues his monstrous work in New Orleans. Detectives Carson O'Connor and Michael Maddison hunt a killer who may be one of Helios's creations. This horror series explores the ethics of creation and the definition of humanity.
The series should be read in publication order, starting with "Prodigal Son," followed by "City of Night," "Dead and Alive," "Lost Souls," and concluding with "The Darkest Evening of the Year."
The series was initially conceived as a television miniseries, and the first book, "Prodigal Son," was adapted into a graphic novel.
The series acts as a modern continuation of Mary Shelley's story, imagining Victor Frankenstein as still alive and continuing his experiments in the present day.
