  Mary Shelley began writing Frankenstein when she was only eighteen. At once a Gothic thriller, a passionate romance, and a cautionary tale about the dangers of science, Frankenstein tells the story of committed science student Victor Frankenstein. Obsessed with discovering the cause of generation and life and bestowing animation upon lifeless matter, Frankenstein assembles a human being from stolen body parts but; upon bringing it to life, he recoils in horror at the creature’s hideousness. Tormented by isolation and loneliness, the once-innocent creature turns to evil and unleashes a campaign of murderous revenge against his creator, Frankenstein.
  Frankenstein, an instant bestseller and an important ancestor of both the horror and science fiction genres, not only tells a terrifying story, but also raises profound, disturbing questions about the very nature of life and the place of humankind within the cosmos: What does it mean to be human? What responsibilities do we have to each other? How far can we go in tampering with Nature? In our age, filled with news of organ donation genetic engineering, and bio-terrorism, these questions are more relevant than ever.

  Welcome to Icon audiobooks at their most terrifying, Provocative and mysterious. Here is a classic audiobook which reaches across the waters of time deep to the inner recesses of the darkest corners of the human mind. Whether or not these are truly horror stories depends on the always fragile state of mind of the attentive listener, But they are dark, often foreboding, and delightfully full of dread. Perhaps more than pure horror they are rather cautionary tales displaying the depths of nameless immortality, criminality and insanity which has plauged humankind from time immemorial. Or perhaps they are something more - a frightening window into the dark unknown, the otherworldly, and truly evil. One thing for sure however, this jarring, well crafted tale of desperation, death, violence and deparvity has the power to rattle the expectant listener to the very core as well as opening doors which might better stay closed taking us upon roads which should not be thoughtlessly travelled, and alleyways to misadventure which wander off into the weeds of self doubt and numbing isolation. Still, the silent pull to take this unexpected trek into the unknown is strong may well lead you into a room full of mirrors where you might not like all that you see... but don’t worry friends, I’ll be with you every step of the way! Presented by actor author, Geoffrey Giuliano  For everyone interested in the cultural significance of classical horror literature here is a once in a lifetime, must have audio event. Perfect for universities and all educational media.

  “I expect it to knock people’s socks off, the way Stephen King’s Carrie did . . . Teeth will haunt you for the rest of your life” (Robert J. Sawyer, Nebula Award-winning author of Calculating God).   They think they’re getting lucky. They’re dead wrong.   Det. Joe Williams has seen all kinds of murder scenes. Some brutal, some gory, all disturbing and horrific in their way. Nothing could have prepared him for what’s waiting in Apartment 413. A man—what’s left of him—lying in a pool of his own blood, his face frozen in a silent scream.   That’s just the first. Soon there are more victims, all male, all mutilated, seeming to have little in common except an agonizing death by castration. All of them went looking for pleasure. Instead they found a killer wreaking vengeance in the most bloodthirsty way. And the only clue Williams has found is a tiny, gleaming metal tooth . . .   Edo van Belkom—winner of the Bram Stoker and Aurora Awards—delves into the heart of man’s most primal fear in a shocking, suspenseful, terrifying novel that bites down hard . . . and won’t let go.   “One of 2001’s best horror novels.” —Science Fiction Chronicle   “Teeth works on several levels: as an over-the-edge contemporary horror novel, as a police procedural, and as a thriller. Edo van Belkom’s mastery of the art of storytelling is brought to bear on this unforgettable novel.” —Robert J. Sawyer, Hugo and Nebula Award–winning author of Calculating God   “Edo van Belkom drags us screaming into the maw of horror.” —Richard Laymon, international bestselling author of The Traveling Vampire Show
