    <body><![CDATA[This is an excellent book.  It is written beautifully with splashes of cinematic touches that, of course are mini-pastiches of Whale's own work.  It is artfully done and although it probably bears little resemblance to the actual last month of Whale's life, sometimes literature speaks greater truth ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/71394861">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I've been on kind of a Christopher Bram tear lately and this was definitely the best of the lot. He has a tendency to be a little overly obvious at times but &quot;Father of Frankenstein&quot; does a much better job of inhabiting the main character's inner life while still lending an epic sweep with...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/42203021">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This book, the basis for the film &quot;Gods and Monsters,&quot; was a delightful read. I found it engaging with good character development that was complex but not overly so. I saw the movie before I read the book and was impressed at how true the former was to the latter. ]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I definitely prefer the movie Gods and Monsters to this book - the movie seemed to capture a pathos that the book did not (and yes, I saw the movie first).

    <body><![CDATA[A great deal of what can only be called swanning about characterizes this book, along with the rest of Bram's fiction -- this is, as one might imagine, both good and bad.  Suffers from the weakness that plagues so much of queenly fiction -- its author can imagine nothing worse than growing old. ]]></body>
