About this listen
Audie Award Finalist, Solo Narration - Male, 2013
Audie Award Finalist, Classic, 2013
Narrator Dan Stevens (Downton Abbey) presents an uncanny performance of Mary Shelley's timeless gothic novel, an epic battle between man and monster at its greatest literary pitch. In trying to create life, the young student Victor Frankenstein unleashes forces beyond his control, setting into motion a long and tragic chain of events that brings Victor to the very brink of madness. How he tries to destroy his creation, as it destroys everything Victor loves, is a powerful story of love, friendship, scientific hubris, and horror.

WHY DID IT TAKE ME SO LONG?!
I felt such a range of emotions listening to this. Dan Stevens did a WONDERFUL job at putting all the expressions in and I really felt for Frankenstein’s Monster. 100% recommend this audiobook and this story in general. So beautifully written for such a sad story.

Great listen. Do not listen if you feel guilty.
Frankenstein is overwhelmed with anguish and agony, feeling the weight of the abomination he has created and set loose among his fellow men. Do not listen if you are feeling the weight of anxiety or guilt.

A Wonderful Rendition
The changes in accents were a pleasant surprise, they made a vast difference, especially in such a narrative style as Shelley’s. Shelley is a master of words amd Stevens’ performance does those words justice.

Frankenstein is the star and a hilariously bad person. Great performance of a classic story.
