"A whole compendium of Frankensteinian lore, enough to keep most of us more than satisfied. Not only is the main line of development of the Frankenstein Monster charted, but related themes which contribute (like the Golem legend) to it are examined in some detail. Starting with the book by Mary Shelley, Mr. Glut takes us along the checkered career of the Monster through the stage versions, the silent movies, the comics, television, and the various film versions which we know today. This is sure to become a basic reference book." —J. B. Post, author An Atlas of Fantasy

"Glut's book is close to a definitive work on the subject. He writes with a pleasantly informal style, too, which makes it possible to read the book for pleasure as well as information. As a bonus, the book is illustrated with slews of motion picture and television stills, reproductions of comics, book covers, and the like. A fine job altogether." -Richard Lupoff, author The Great American Paperback
