A NOTE FROM THE PUBLISHER
Who doesn’t love a Mad Scientist?
From Victor Frankenstein to Doctor Moreau to Herbert West, the Mad Scientist has been a staple of science fiction for generations. I have always been fascinated by them, and I’m pleased to present a selection of Mad Scientist stories from the classics like H.P. Lovecraft’s “Herbert West—Reanimator” and The Strange Case of Dr. Jeckyll and Mr. Hyde to modern and classic tales you probably haven’t heard of before (including an original tale by H.B. Fyfe, discovered among his papers after Wildside Press purchased his literary estate).
Enjoy!

ABOUT THE MEGAPACKS
Over the last few years, our “Megapack” series of ebook anthologies has grown to be among our most popular endeavors. (Maybe it helps that we sometimes offer them as premiums to our mailing list!) One question we keep getting asked is, “Who’s the editor?”
The Megapacks (except where specifically credited) are a group effort. Everyone at Wildside works on them. This includes John Betancourt (me), Carla Coupe, Steve Coupe, Bonner Menking, Colin Azariah-Kribbs, A.E. Warren, and many of Wildside’s authors…who often suggest stories to include (and not just their own!)
RECOMMEND A FAVORITE STORY?
Do you know a great classic science fiction story, or have a favorite author whom you believe is perfect for the Megapack series? We’d love your suggestions! You can post them on our message board at http://movies.ning.com/forum (there is an area for Wildside Press comments).
Note: we only consider stories that have already been professionally published. This is not a market for new works.
TYPOS
Unfortunately, as hard as we try, a few typos do slip through. We update our ebooks periodically, so make sure you have the current version (or download a fresh copy if it’s been sitting in your ebook reader for months.) It may have already been updated.
If you spot a new typo, please let us know. We’ll fix it for everyone. You can email the publisher at wildsidepress@yahoo.com or use the message boards above.
