We've all seen original classic stories twisted with a new plot, new writing style, new characters, and so much more.  But what about a novel that continues a classic story that everyone enjoyed without changing anything?Frankenstein: A Life Beyond does just that.Planisek does a wonderful job of picking up where Mary Shelley finished.  I found the story very intriguing, considering I've never thought of what might have happened after the ending Shelly left us with.  But now, I want more.In this fantastic continuation, Ernest, Victor's brother, gets warning that his brother may still be alive.  The plot is done at a great pace as we read about Ernest and his quest to find his family, ultimately getting sucked into the monsters quest.Planisek does a phenomenal job of depicting "the creature" in the same way Mary Shelley did.  I know that must have been a challenge but Panisek pulls it off splendidly.Overall, this was an exciting read, one that I did not want to put down.  I look forward to reading the next book in the series.(I received a copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review)
