This Dark Endeavor by Kenneth Oppel

4.0

If you love dark and twisted tales, then this one is for you. Victor Frankenstein is a complicated character that you will equally root for, then cringe from. In this prequel to Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, Oppel has managed to capture the gothic setting so well you would think this book has always existed alongside the classic. With plot twists, a harrowing adventure and sibling rivalry to boot this book makes you keep returning to the story long after you put it down. I can't wait to dim the lights, curl under a blanket and start reading book 2!
