From the imaginations of Gothic short-story writers such as Edgar Allen Poe, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Mary Shelley, and later weirdists such as H.P. Lovecraft came one of the most complex of villains--the mad scientist. Promethean Horrors presents some of the greatest mad scientists ever created, as each cautionary tale explores the consequences of pushing nature too far. These savants take many forms: there are malcontents who strive to create poisonous humans; technologists obsessed with genetic splicing; mesmerists interested in the way consciousness operates after death, and inventors who believe in a hidden reality. United by an unhealthy obsession with wanting to reach beyond their circumstances, these mad scientists are marked by their magical capacity to alter the present, a gift that always comes at a price.

Great dress shoe
Size: 10.5 Wide, Color: Black
Wow. Very impressed with these. Would purchase again. Comfortable enough for my teenage son, my husband and I very impressed with their look. Great for any special occasion. Ours appear to be all leather. Even the sole. These will last a lifetime if cared for.

Great shoes
Size: 10 Wide, Color: Brown, Size: 10 Wide, Color: Brown
This shoe is incredibly comfortable and durable. I work in custodial work as management. However, sometimes I have to help my team when we are low manned. Just recently I had to help my team auto scrub a restroom. My shoes felt lightweight and were completely easy to clean. I was worried I would be slipping on sudsy water. To my surprise, these shoes gripped on to the floor nicely. I love the versatility of having a working shoe with the great style Bruno Marc provides. The shoe is breathable and true to size. I ordered the black pair as well and have had them for about 3 months. Highly recommend these amazing shoes.

Great quality.
Size: 8.5, Color: Brown
Bought these shoes at the last minute for my husband to wear to an event. They arrived overnight and did not disappoint. They are true to size, high quality, lightweight, and they look great on. Can be worn with jeans to a casual event or with slacks to a more formal event . He loves them and said they are extremely comfortable.
