Review:

"[Ackroyd's] novel is a brilliant riff on ideas that have informed literary, horror and science fiction for nearly two centuries." (starred review)

Publishers Weekly, 08/03/2009

Review:

"Peter Ackroyd knows a thing or two about raising the dead. His experiments in reanimation have been conducted entirely in the laboratory of literature, and his quick-witted new novel, THE CASE OF VICTOR FRANKENSTEIN, argues persuasively for the wisdom of that choice."

Terrence Rafferty, New York Times Book Review, 11/01/2009
