Here’s a nice typographic cover illustration for a sudoku book with quotes from Mary Shelley’s novel interspersed among the “Monsterously Hard” number puzzles. Published last April by Black Wagon Press of Kingston, New York, it’s one of the more curious Frankenstein-related titles of 2009. The company also issued Dracula and Jekyll & Hyde-themed companion books.
