The amazing Dr. Darwin
Sheffield Charles
Not that Darwin—his grandfather!
18th Century Europe:
It is an age when superstition is beginning to give way to the force of
human reason, and no man so fully embodies the spirit of the times as
Dr. Erasmus Darwin. Thinker, healer, and explorer of the bizarre and the
seemingly supernatural, no mystery can stand for long against Darwin’s
enlightened analysis. And there are far more mysteries than history
know…
For Erasmus Darwin’s world is filled with oddities that
most cannot believe: from unknown beings lurking just outside the
boundaries of civilization, to anomalies that even the greatest natural

give rise to fears of malevolent sorcery.
And when the renowned
Dr. Darwin is called upon to heal a man dying of an ailment that seems
impossible, he has no idea that it is the beginning of a quest that will
lead him to the darkest corners of Europe, and a stunning encounter
with the most famous inhabitant of a certain Scottish loch…
