He Tampered With Nature's Laws To Change A Monkey Into A Death-Dealing Gorilla Bigger Than Human Eyes Had Ever Seen. This Novel Is Based On The Herman Cohen Production - An American International Picture. Professor Decker's whole life was a series of evil secrets: There was his secretary, Margaret, who performed her official duties by day and her extracurricular duties by night. There was the secret of his potent new serum, which was changing the tiny monkey, Konga into a gargantuan king gorilla. And there were the carnivorous jungle plants which could be grown large enough to swallow a man whole. Blonde coed Sandra, eager to learn in or out of class, started as a secret, too. But when Decker's jealous lust for her and his fury at a rival scientist's discoveries drove him to murder, he used Konga as his instrument of destruction. This book is in very good condition.

"Pseudonym – and eventually, perhaps the legal name – of US author Dudley Dean McGaughy, (1909-1986) , whose routine novelizations of horror and sf, films are The Brides of Dracula (1960) ; Konga (1960) , based, on Konga (1961) ; Reptilicus (1961) , based on Reptilicus, (1962) ; and End of the World (1962) , based on Panic in Year, Zero! (1962) , a film which was in turn based without, acknowledgement on two short stories by Ward Moore. Monarch, Books's habit of publishing soft-porn adaptations of chaste, movies led to at least one court case (see Reptilicus). " (from, Encyclopedia of Science Fiction)
