Product ReviewsThe Resurrectionist : The Lost Work of Dr. Spencer Black by E. B. Hudspeth (2013, Hardcover)

Loved the story, loved the detailed illustrations.

A truly fascinating read. The story of Spencer Black is spotty, but the minimal entries about his life give a clear enough picture as the reader sees a character follow a path both dark twisted; like a more modern Victor Frankenstein centered very close to home. While the story is short, it is a good read that allows the reader to fill in the gaps in his/her own imagination. A good fantasy story.
The other half of the book, more than makes up for the spotty story entries. Beautifully drawn anatomy pictures of mythological creatures the stories main character claims to have possibly once existed. If you love fantastic mythological creatures, this part of the book shows how they could have looked if they well and truly lived and breathed. A perfect book for anyone loving detail, and mystery.Read full review...

A very interesting piece of fiction

A very brilliant work with full anatomical reference of muscles, bones, and organs of fantastic and mythical creatures. One half is the fictional study/biography of the "construction" and resurrection of several mythical animals, and the second half is several creatures illustrated fully to anatomical perfection regarding bones and muscles. Nudity involves anatomical illustration of breasts on some creatures such as mermaids, and harpy, but otherwise very appropriate for all ages.Read full review...

Fantasy Anatomy

I bought this as a reference guide for my artist son. In my opinion it will help him improve his drawings of mythological and fantasy creatures.

The artistry and attention to detail in this book is fantastic. Made me wish I had bought it for myself.Read full review...
