I'm generally a big fan of collecting multiple books in a series into one volume, as it makes it easy to follow the story from start to finish. But, in this case, I don't think the combining was executed that well and, except for the cost savings of buying one book instead of two, I actually think the separate books would be better.
The two books have been joined together in what appears to be an attempt at a seamless story: no table of contents denotes the separation of the two books and the chapter numbering is continuous, instead of starting over for the second book. But all the summarizing of the story thus far that's common in later books in a series is still present in the second half of this volume, "I for an Eye." It's quite jarring to be halfway through a book, just starting chapter 10, only to come upon a "Let me remind you" section that reiterates everything you just read in the first nine chapters.
Other than the combination issues, though, this is a cute "thriller" of sorts for young readers, replete with colorful illustrations. Fans of monsters, mysteries, and orphan stories should enjoy The Frankenstein Journals.
