Overview
<b>A monster-hunting doctor and his apprentice face off against a plague of monsters in the first book of a terrifying series. <i>Publishers Weekly </i>says “horror lovers will be rapt.”</b><br><br><i>These are the secrets I have kept. </i>So starts the diary of Will Henry, orphan and assistant to a doctor with a most unusual specialty: monster hunting. In the short time he has lived with the doctor in nineteenth-century New England, Will has grown accustomed to his late-night callers and dangerous business. But when one visitor comes with the body of a young girl and the monster that was eating her, Will’s world changes forever. The doctor has discovered a baby Anthropophagus—a headless monster that feeds through a mouth in its chest—and it signals a growing number of Anthropophagi. Will and the doctor must face the horror threatening to overtake and consume the world…before it is too late.<br> <br><i>The Monstrumologist</i> is the first stunning gothic adventure in a series that combines the terror of HP Lovecraft with the spirit of Arthur Conan Doyle.
