About this listen

Bloomsbury presents Basilisk by Graham Masterton, read by John Moraitis.

WHATEVER YOU DO, DON'T LOOK UP...

Nathan Underhill is right at the cutting edge of stem-cell research: attempting to recreate mythological creatures in order to cure medical conditions like Alzheimer’s and MS.

After five years of research, he loses his funding. But Nathan suspects that somebody else has succeeded in breeding mythical hybrids.

He discovers that Doctor Zauber, owner of the local care home, has brought to life the basilisk, which could reputedly kill any living thing with a single stare.

When Nathan’s wife, Grace, is put into a coma after nearly being killed, Nathan is forced to choose: lose Grace forever, or enter into an unholy alliance with Zauber to breed more mythological beasts, at the cost of many more human lives...
