Mary and her cohorts cover up a murder, but for the crime, Adam must die. Victoria attempts to end Adam's life but fails, driving him, heartbroken, off into the woods. But when female members of Victoria's house staff start going missing, Mary discovers that Adam has done the unthinkable to heal his shattered heart. Brought to life by Adam Glass (ROUGH RIDERS, THE NORMALS, THE LOLLIPOP KIDS) and Olivia Cuartero-Briggs (TV's The Arrangement) with art by Hayden Sherman (COLD WAR, The Few, Wasted Space), MARY SHELLEY: MONSTER HUNTER is historical fiction at its most (After)shocking!
The creature lives and its reign of terror begins. The story has the characters in emotional turmoil due to Adam's violence, as well as the secrets they've kept from one another. From the first page the tension of what Adam will do seeps into every illustration and when he's on the page it's wonderfully monstrous. I love the visuals on this book, solidifying my love of Sherman's art. This deliciously dark and devious twisting of the classic tale is one that can't be passed up. Absolutely recommended.

Mary Shelley Monster Hunter finally puts our lead into an actual monster hunting position and there's a lot to like. Mary's been a great character since the start and I like the challenges she faces and how she does it, keeping to a more forward way that fits her well as she charts the course of her life the best that she can in this time and place.
