About the Author:
Stephen Jones is the winner of three World Fantasy Awards, four Horror Writers Association Bram Stoker Awards and three International Horror Guild Awards, as well as being a multiple recipient of the British Fantasy Award and a Hugo Award nominee. A former television producer/director and genre movie publicist and consultant, he has written and edited more than 130 books, including the Fearie Tales: Stories of the Grimm and Gruesome, A Book of Horrors, Curious Warnings: The Great Ghost Stories of M.R. James, Psycho-Mania! and The Mammoth Book of Best New Horror and Zombie Apocalypse! series.
From Booklist:
The latest Mammoth anthology of supernatural, crime, and science fiction features man-made creatures of human and subhuman pedigree inspired by the example of Victor Frankenstein's creation. Accompanying the complete text of Mary Shelley's 1818 horror classic are 21 stories, two novellas, and a poem that explore the full spectrum of monsterly creation in literary styles ranging from comic to macabre. Eminent sf and horror practitioners including Ramsey Campbell, Robert Bloch, and Kim Newman test their life-creating skills by breeding a mutant hound, remodeling a deceased grandfather, and--in a surprisingly serious piece by Manley Wade Wellman--turning a rare ape into an intelligent Shakespearean actor. More credible standouts are Daniel Fox's probing account of a genetically engineered prodigy's voluntary demise in the face of competitive jealousy and David Case's "Dead End," a tautly written thriller about a unique breeding experiment involving regressed humanoids that eventually include the tale's horrified narrator. Although far from exhaustive despite its bulk, this is indispensable for thoroughgoing collections of classic horror, which will also want to consider Bernie Wrightson's Frankenstein (Underwood-Miller; dist. by Publishers Group West, $24.95 [0-88733-194-7]; paper, $15.95 [0-88733-193-9]), an edition of Shelley's yarn that features many full-page illustrations by a top-notch horror-comics artist. Carl Hays
