Oh I do think I might need this one! I love the steampunk these days and to blend Frankenstein with it. Hmmm, It could be very good. :D Thank you!

Great cover but I'm still not convinced by the re-telling/writing of these classics generally holding the belief if it ain't broke why fix it.

Melissa: Flipping through, it looked curious...

Juju: My pleasure!

roro: Small reading world after all. ^_^

Petty Witter: Gotcha...I understand, I do; but what if it's not a "fix" per se but simply another way to enjoy the classic? Maybe even bring it to the new generation?

Is it rewritten or are illustrations simply added? I love that cover!
