"A cross between Mary Shelley and Stephen King." - VOYA
"Yancey takes the violence of Darren Shan's 'Cirque du Freak' to thrilling new level in this sophisticated tale"- School Library Journal

This book so far is a thrilling, mysterious and creepy book. The Anthropophagus are coming back from extinction. The Anthropophagus is a monster that has no head and its mouth is near its stomach. It was said to be extinct in North America till one day an old man with a straw hat came to a house owned by the monstrumologist and his assistant Will Henry. What the old man brought was pure horror an Anthropophagus in North America. They are in the race to kill all of them before they multiply.

Will Henry and the monstrumologist are way different people from what I have found out so far. The monstrumologist is a very strict and hardworking person he is always trying to find new monsters and protect people from it. Will Henry from my insight I first thought he was a zombie brought back from the grave. Later I learned that he was taken by the monstrumologist after his parents died

  1. i liked how you put a picture of what you thought it looked like and then put a picture of the real creature. You also did a good job describing the characters and their differences.
