DEAN KOONTZS CITY OF NIGHT
They are stronger, heal better, and think faster than any humans ever created -- and they must be destroyed. But not even Victor Helios -- once Frankenstein -- can stop the engineered killers hes set loose on a reign of terror through modern-day New Orleans. Now the only hope rests in a one-time "monster" and his all-too-human partners, Detectives Carson OConnor and Michael Maddison. Deucalions centuries-old history began as Victors first and failed attempt to build the perfect human -- and it is fated to end in the ultimate confrontation between a damned creature and his mad creator. But first Deucalion must destroy a monstrosity not even Victors malignant mind could have imagine -- an indestructible entity that steps out of humankinds collective nightmare with one purpose: to replace us.
