About this listen

In Frankenstein: Lost Souls, Dean Koontz puts a singular twist on this classic tale of ambition and science gone wrong, to forge a new legend uniquely suited to our times. It is a story of revenge, redemption, and the thin line that separates human from inhuman.

The work of creation has begun again. Victor Leben, once Frankenstein, has seen the future — and he’s ready to populate it. Using stem cells, “organic” silicon circuitry, and nanotechnology, he will engender a race of superhumans — the perfect melding of flesh and machine. With a powerful, enigmatic backer and a secret location where the enemies of progress can’t find him, Victor is certain that this time nothing can stop him.

It is up to five people to prove him wrong. In their hands rests nothing less than the survival of humanity itself. They are drawn together in different ways, by omens sinister and wondrous, to the same shattering conclusion: Two years after they saw him die, the man they knew as Victor Helios lives on. As they gather at a small Montana town, old alliances will be renewed and tested, from within and without, for the dangers they face will eclipse any they have yet encountered. Yet in the midst of their peril, love will blossom, and joy, and they will discover sources of strength and perseverance they have not imagined.

They will need them, for a monumental battle is about to commence that will require all their ingenuity and courage, as it defines what we are to be...and if we are to be at all.

THE BEST ONE YET!!!!

Be warned, it's a cliff hanger. Besides that, I loved how the Narrator brought all the characters to life and made the funny parts even better!

Mr. Koontz, Jocko needs his own book.

Easy Listen, Great Story

Although i do agree with the previous review that it would have been nice to know before hand that this book seems to be only HALF the story... and ends right as it's getting really good and the action kicks in...... The STORY is cleaver and entertaining. I am absolutely anxiously awaiting the next installment. I am not as upset as others ( remember the S. K's The Green Mile and all of it's installments?) about the fact that it is an unfinished story, just wished i had known that going into the listening.

I hope that people can see past this minor flaw and that Koontz keeps going with the Frankenstein Series..... it has yet to disappoint me, and has left me obsessed with this series!

A fantastic 1/2 book

By now, I appreciate Koontz's work enough to easily forgive him for giving us half a story here. It's still better than many whole ones I've read from others. Reader is quite good, though, no, they don't have that accent in Montana. That's more like Kentucky.

Series started out great, but this book was just filler.

This book could be condensed to a chapter or two at the most. The rest of it was the writer trying to introduce humor and it was poor. The narrator made it worse with his voices. Jocks is annoying. Bryce sounds like a Jimmie Stewart impersonation. Numbly is Forrest Gump. This book was a waste of the writer’s, the narrator’s and the reader’s time. I will listen to the next one to find out how it ends, but this book was commercial exploitation of the reader. What a shame, Koontz had the best sequel series EVER going until this.

Very well written, but just part of the story

Very well written, love the story, but it's just one part of the total story including several other books

really engrossing!

Koontz picks up where his heroes left off after New Orleans - and so does Victor. I found Book 3 of the earlier Frankenstein saga (Dead and Alive) quite disappointing -- and of course the whole earlier series was uneven (at best) because of multiple co-authors -- but this is all Dean & really enjoyable. Can't wait for the next book to arrive!

Better Than Expected

I've been down on Koontz for a while, not enjoying his last books. When I heard that Frankenstein would be a new trilogy, I was baffled as to why. Regardless, I chose to give it a listen and was pleasantly surprised. Although the book ends just as the action is mounting (like his previous Frankenstein books), the story was quite a bit more solid (so far) then the last trilogy. There are the old characters along with an interesting set of new characters, most of which are likeable. Apart from a few minor issues, I enjoyed this book and I am looking forward to the next in the series. I hope this is a sign that Koontz is beginning to return to the writing that made me a fan so long ago.
