"This Dark Endeavor" by Kenneth Oppel. Books for Teens: 60second Book Review by Jenny Sawyer. http://goo.gl/S0rOCo
Victor and Konrad Frankenstein are inseparable. Brothers, twins, competitors, best friends. So when Konrad falls desperately ill with a disease no physician seems capable of curing, Victor springs into action. Disregarding his father's warning, he seeks answers in The Dark Library, where secret books of alchemy may hold the formula for the Elixir of Life. Little does Victor realize the danger to his own life as he risks everything to save his brother. Little does he realize the monstrosity of his endeavor--and the way it foreshadows his most famous monstrous work, lurking formidably in his future.
