***** "The relationship between Will and his master has never been more complex...Yanceyβs skill as a stylist cannot be denied."--Booklist , starred review
***** "Articulately literary, horrifically grotesque and mind-bendingly complex, Yanceyβs trilogy conclusion might be the best of the Monstrumologist trilogy. His 19th-century dialogue and descriptions run even smoother than the previous two titles, and his characters have grown deeply complex. He deftly blurs lines between science and the supernatural, and what results is a long, dark-night-of-the-soul journey for both Will Henry and Pellinore that is certain to turn the hearts and the stomachs of every reader who dares open its pages."--Kirkus Reviews , starred review
An old friend of Dr. Warthropβs comes asking for help to track down Warthropβs colleague, the sociopathic Dr. John Kearns. At first, Warthrop is reluctant to helpβuntil he learns that Kearns may possess information leading to a creature widely regarded as the Holy Grail of monstrumology: an organism so rare and elusive that it has never been killed, captured, or even observed in the wild.
Dr. Warthrop canβt resist the challenge, and soon he and Will Henry are off on another hellish quest, this time to the bizarre island of Socotra, home to some of the strangest flora and fauna in the world. And itβs on Socotra that Will Henry comes face-to-face with the most horrific creature yetβand he just may pay the ultimate price for his masterβs ambition.
