I love monsters, especially the lost, lovelorn, and lonely kind — the afflicted Wolf Man; the misguided Creature from the Black Lagoon; Frankenstein’s tragic monster; even Jeff Goldblum’s suffering Brundle-Fly… Always on the lookout for new monsters, or new takes on existing archetypes and characters, I was delighted to stumble across “The Mad Scientist’s Daughter” by Theodora Goss. Concerning a group of women with infamous fathers, it’s dark but funny, grim and sweet all at once.
