Reviews
Aftershock and Adam Glass bring out another amazing story based on partial historical facts. The story of Mary Shelly and her poet friends who challenge each other to write a scary story takes a few well placed twists and turns. A lost scene (no longer ht to read. lost), a lost manuscript and a few tweaks to the classic and we are off and running. This one is a real delight!
