Praise for MARY SHELLEY MONSTER HUNTER
"Horror continues to be done superbly at AfterShock." --SCIFIPULSE
"Writers Glass and Cuartero-Briggs’ script does a solid balancing act between aping a voice rich with literary flourishes and giving us Shelley’s interiority." --COMICS BOOKCASE
"I cannot express how much more I have enjoyed this series than I even originally anticipated... Mary Shelley [Monster Hunter] succeeds because it exists far beyond its premise." --PANEL PATTER
For nearly two centuries, scholars have wondered how on earth Mary Shelley, a nineteen-year-old girl, was able to conjure one of the most frightening and enduring horror stories of all-time: Frankenstein.
But with the recent discovery of Mary Shelley’s secret memoir, the truth is finally revealed: Mary Shelley didn’t just write Frankenstein, she lived it. Traveling back to that historic Geneva winter of 1816, Mary, her fiancé Percy, sisters Claire and Fanny, and the celebrated poet Lord Byron find themselves guests of the eerie Frankenstein Estate. The macabre and frightening events that follow lead Mary to both a gruesome and shocking discovery. Their mysterious host is not at all what they expected, and their intentions will change the course of Mary’s life forever.
"Shelley is not your typical “monster hunter,” and that’s good because we feel the danger she’s experiencing strongly." --MAJOR SPOILERS
"Both authors get passing marks for fitting the actual timeline to the story events. Higher marks for fashioning an enjoyable tale that spotlights a brilliant author considered by many the inventor of both modern horror and science fiction literature." --DOOM ROCKET
