\n \u201cDisturbingly lovely . . . The Resurrectionist is itself a cabinet of curiosities, stitching history and mythology and sideshow into an altogether different creature. Deliciously macabre and beautifully grotesque.\u201d\u2014Erin Morgenstern, author of The Night Circus<\/p>\n

This macabre tale\u2014part dark fantasy, part Gray\u2019s Anatomy\u2014tells the chilling story of a man driven mad by his search for the truth, with hypnotic and horrifying images.<\/p>\n

Philadelphia, the late 1870s. A city of gas lamps, cobblestone streets, and horse-drawn carriages\u2014and home to the controversial surgeon Dr. Spencer Black. The son of a grave robber, young Dr. Black studies at Philadelphia\u2019s esteemed Academy of Medicine, where he develops an unconventional hypothesis: that the mythological beasts of legend and lore\u2014including mermaids, minotaurs, and satyrs\u2014were in fact humanity’s evolutionary ancestors. And beyond that, he wonders: what if there was a way for humanity to reach the fuller potential these ancestors implied?<\/p>\n

The Resurrectionist offers two extraordinary books in one. The first part is a fictional biography of Dr. Spencer Black, from his childhood spent exhuming corpses through his medical training, his travels with carnivals, his cruel and crazed experiments, and, finally, his mysterious disappearance. The second part is Black\u2019s magnum opus: The Codex Extinct Animalia, a Gray\u2019s Anatomy for mythological beasts, all rendered in meticulously detailed anatomical illustrations.
