In 1936 Dr. Josef Mengele discovers Victor Frankenstein's lab journal in the attic of an Ingolstadt dormitory and is tasked by the Reich Institute with replicating his reanimation procedure.
While hiding in a bookstore in Warsaw, a pair of Jewish twin brothers, Jotham and Eli Podczaski, come across the letters of Captain Walton to his sister, detailing the ill-fated story of Frankenstein.
When Jotham and Eli are captured by the Gestapo and encounter Mengele in the gray confines of Auschwitz KZ, they alone recognize the origin of his bizarre, sadistic experiments. Jotham hatches a plan to escape the camp and travel north, to find the only being capable of stopping Mengele from providing the Third Reich with a new race of undying stormtroopers; the only being on earth who will believe them ... Frankenstein's original creature.
"Ed Erdelac once again proves a master of historical fiction, as well as seamlessly blending literature into reality." --The Horror Fiction Review
Monstrumfuhrer edition by Edward M Erdelac Mystery Thriller Suspense eBooks
Erdelac has been one of my favorites ever since I picked up his Weird West gunslinger series called Tales Of The Merkabah Rider, a rip-roaring yarn about a six-gun toting Jewish mystic hunting down demonic forces in the Old West. Since then I've bought all his stuff, including last year's awesome Andersonville, and I've not been disappointed yet. He deserves to be much, much more widely known and appreciated.This novel deals with the journey of teenage Jotham during WW2, from Jewish fugitive to concentration camp survivor, and his efforts to track down the long lost Frankenstein's monster. While being held prisoner in Auschwitz along with his twin brother Eli, Jotham comes to the attention of the deadly Dr. Josef Mengele, who uses him as an errand boy around the camp. After witnessing Mengele's sadistic experiments (copied from the journals of Victor Frankenstein) to regenerate dead German SS troopers into unstoppable zombie supersoldiers, Jotham decides he must escape the camp and find the one thing that can stop Mengele: Frankenstein's original creation, last seen somewhere in the Arctic. But the monster has plans of his own for Mengele's experiments and will stop at nothing to bring his own twisted vision to life.
If that concept doesn't sound awesome enough, it's made even better through Erdelac's gripping prose, excellent, layered characterizations, and astute observations of the human psyche and the evils that lie within. Go buy this book and get ready to add a new name to your own list of favorite authors.

Monstrumfuhrer edition by Edward M Erdelac Mystery Thriller Suspense eBooks Reviews
Pleasantly surprised by the story and how well done it was, ending was alright and enjoyed it overall
I was surprised by how much I liked this book. Erdelac is a gifted storyteller. At first, I thought it might be a big, fun ball of cheese like Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter. I've read Holocaust lit and horror genre fiction. There's some real historical content here mixed in with an interesting sequel to Shelley. I wanted a little more from the ending but decided it deserved five stars nevertheless.
I wasn't sure what I was expecting, but this sure as hell wasn't it. This book was fantastic, probably one of my favorites this year so far. Very well thought out, great dialogue, and a grim look at Auschwitz in a way that I just didn't expect. Seriously fantastic work, and very thoughtfully, and tastefully, written.
Sort of a sequel of Frankenstein, picking more than a century later than where we left his creature in Mary Shelley's novel, Monstrumführer is an excellent novel that combines war, horror, adventure and more in the most horrendous setting of mankind the concentration camps in WWII.
Our hero is Jotham, a little boy who crosses paths with Mengele in Auschwitz, each one of them having a key to reveal the secret of Frankenstein and his creature. When Mengele finally succeeds in creating life, Jotham must enlist the help of the creature to stop the mad scientist.
Always full of fantastic descriptions, plot twists and so much gore, Ed Erdelac does a magnificent job of conveying a state shifting constantly between awe and horror. Extremely recommended!
Boy enlists Frankenstein's monster--called the Creature here-- to help him stop Dr. Josef Mengele from creating a Nazi force that could not only win the war but destroy the world.
On the surface Monstrumfuhrer would seem a simple mashup. Nazi medical horror and Mary Shelley. There's plenty of action, including some amazing displays of the Creature's strength, and colorful scenes set all over the globe. Auschwitz comes to horrifying life as a machine of suffering powered (the most horrible truth) by a human heart. But the story goes deeper than comparing the Nazis' atrocities on a larger scale with that of Dr. Frankenstein. And while it conveys the awful choices made in wartime on all sides very effectively (a scene with one German family is heartbreaking) it goes beyond the problems of adherence to a moral code when survival, or at least escape from torture, takes over all considerations. Monstrumfuhrer is about exploitation.
We always think the other person is the one who exploits. No one is as cold about its motivations to use others as the Creature (it was born out of exploitation, right?), but unlike humans the Creature doesn't deny its nature to manipulate or use coercion to get what it wants. It offers a unique and chilling perspective on how all people exploit each other and justify it with a self-lie. This idea shadows the narrative, its people, events, the clash of wills and ideas between characters. It sounds misanthropic, but it comes as more of a plea for empathy which might be lost in all the action if the story were not so well-written.
If I haven't sold you on it yet, just read it for the monster action and the Frankenstein elements. Shelley's tale fits right into the storyline and the Creature is rendered faithfully with her portrayal of it.
