Discover a nineteenth-century Philadelphia surgeon's lost codex and his macabre quest to prove a controversial hypothesis by any means necessary in this dark fantasy book.

Part stunning coffee table art book, part fictional biography, this gaslamp bestiary features grotesquely detailed anatomical illustrations and a chilling horror novella.

"Disturbingly lovely... a cabinet of curiosities, stitching history and mythology and sideshow into an altogether different creature." -- Erin Morgenstern, author of The Night Circus

The Resurrectionist offers two extraordinary books in one. The first part is a chilling fictional biography of Dr. Spencer Black, from his childhood spent exhuming corpses through his medical training, his travels with carnivals, his cruel and crazed experiments, and, finally, his mysterious disappearance. The second part is Black's magnum opus: The Codex Extinct Animalia, a Gray's Anatomy for mythological beasts, all rendered in meticulously detailed anatomical illustrations.
