Series: The Monstrumologist
by Author Rick Yancey
Der Monstrumologe und das Drachen-Ei (2000)
Dark and labyrinthine, and a satisfying conclusion to the Monstrumologist Quartet. The conceit is that Rick Yancey has collected and published/edited the journals of Will Henry, detailing Will Henry's life from the time he was first adopted at a young age by Dr. Warthrop, a harsh and passionate h...
The Isle of Blood (2011)
The writing was much better than the first two books, the author's style seems to become more beautiful as the series develops. I liked the existential feel of this book, and the way the narrator shifted outside of just Will Henry at points. I don't think I am emotionally ready for the fourth boo...
Der Monstrumologe und die Insel des Blutes (2013)
MIGHT CONTAIN SOME SPOILERSAfter reading The Monstrumologist and The Curse of the Wendigo, I was expecting an equally epic and captivating story, however, I found myself being thoroughly disappointed.

Der Monstrumologe und der Fluch des Wendigo (2012)

Warthrop, the monstrumologist, and his twelve-ye...
Yaratık Avcısı (2011)
Be forewarned: This is a super-gory book and Yancey does NOT stint on detailed descriptions of disgusting stuff. Not at all my kind of thing, but SO well-written. The setting, New England in 1988, is superbly creepy and atmospheric. The odd pairing of obsessed monster-hunting doctor and his 12 ...
The Terror Beneath (2009)
