     Written in 1818, the book Frankenstein, by
Mary Shelly, tells the story of Victor Frankenstein
and his creation, the Monster. This work was quite
innovative for the time, as it was the first work of
science fiction created.

who is the real villain of the story.  On the
other hand, I think that the first chapters of
the book are a bit dull and monotonous,
which can lead to some readers to stop
reading.
