Prometheus Reborn

Dr. Victor Kessler spent eleven years and everything he had trying to build a body that could survive what took his mother - and the night it finally opened its eyes, he ran.What he left behind in that barn didn't die. It learned to walk. It learned to speak, from a blind man's kindness and a family's kitchen window. It learned, eventually, exactly who had made it and abandoned it - and what the world does to something that looks almost, but not quite, human.A child is dead within the year. An innocent woman pays for it with her life. And Victor Kessler, understanding exactly what he's responsible for and saying nothing, will spend everything that's left of his own - his best friend, his father, the woman he loves - before he finally goes north, alone, to finish what he started.A modern reimagining of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, faithful to its bones and rebuilt for the present: an artificial mind trained on human data instead of a mind stitched from the dead, a hunt across a country instead of a continent, and the same unbearable question at the center of it - who is the monster, the thing that was made, or the man who made it and turned away?
