Troll and Other Stories

     I read "Ghost International Troll and Other Stories". This book is consisted from four short stories. I introduce the best story "A New Year's Game" with quotation. She felt that she was waiting for something very important. The future was very close. Soon she would see it.      This story is about a 'scrying' game in England in 1600s.

The story is in Switzerland and appears many beautiful descriptions of mountains. Although I read first half yet, I'll introduce important scenes with quotation. I wanted to discover where life came from. I wanted to experiment with science as much as possible. I wanted to create life.      When Frankenstein was young, he saw thunder hitting the tree near his house. Then he was interested in electricity and in the power that exists in all natural things. This  sentences are the beginning of terrible. If he didn't want to create life and has ethics, he and people around him would be unhappy.  The man was terribly ugly. He had thick black hair and white teeth, but his skin was yellow and dry. His eyes were very pale. He was a monster.      This sentences is from his
