An interesting take on the Frankenstein tale, Koontz moves at blazing speed through this tale. The story is full of killers and strange twists of scientific accomplishments. My biggest gripes revolve around a seemingly meaningless following of a red herring killer and the many dull aspects of Randall Six. 
 All in all, Carson, Michael, and Deucalion are all interesting characters that kept my curiosity and attention. I'm a lover of Frankenstein tales/films and this one didn't disappoint. I will be continuing on to the next book of the series.
