The Frankenstein Vendetta

“After Victor died, there was nothing left for me. I had no reason to exist other than to spite his memory – and curse the name of Frankenstein. But deep inside all of us, every living thing, is the drive to survive, and even thrive. In time, I came to understand that living well, while my creator, my father, my bane- was dead, was the best revenge. And I deserved no less.”

What Came Next?

Mary Shelley writes in her novel, Frankenstein, that the creature, seeing Victor dead, promises to throw himself on a funeral pyre and let his ashes be carried out to sea.

But suppose he doesn’t go through with his promise; instead of dying, he vows to live, even if only to spite Victor? Follow Adam, the creature, through centuries, continents, and ages as he searches for a peaceful life free from those who would destroy him and a secret society that wishes to capture him and learn his secret to immortal life. When that is not enough, he searches for what he wants above all else: to be healed. Science created his hell, but now it may deliver him from it.
