"Thermidor" by Siobhan Carroll
"Sewn into Her Fingers" by Autumn Christian
"The Human Alchemy" by Michael Griffin
"The New Soviet Man" by G. D. Falksen
These four were well written, and made me think about existence and our sense of self.
My least favorite was "Mary Shelley’s Body" by David Templeton. I ended up only reading half the story because I was so bored and just wanted it to be over.
The rest of the stories were good. This is a good anthology for fans of Frankenstein. I enjoyed reading it. (
