In the age of AI, this classic tale of technology gone wrong is a must-read collectible in this handsome faux-leather hardcover edition.
The combination of fantastical elements and scientific exploration makes this Mary Shelley novel one of the first true models of science fiction.

The storycomes alive anew in this beautifully designed edition featuring:
