When I shelved this on Goodreads, a couple of years ago, I rated it 3 stars based on a 30-year-old memory of it being vaguely disappointing. I have just now re-read it for the Set on Halloween square for 2016 Halloween Bingo. As one of Uncle Steve’s Constant Readers, I feel this just doesn’t measu...
Synopsis: When the full moon shines, a paralysing fear descends on the isolated Maine town of Tarker Mills. No one knows who will be attacked next, but snarls that sound like human words can be heard and all around are the footprints of a monster whose hunger cannot be sated. ***** The best thin...
Very easy and quick read. Felt more like a short story than a stand alone, but good nonetheless. He definitely could have gone a bit more into it though, as I felt it was pretty rushed. I would have liked to learn a bit more about the main characters and the victims, but I get that it wasn't that ty...
Ah, what do I say about this book first? WEREWOLVES! DEATH! VIOLENCE! I think that about sums it up. I love Stephen King for so very many reasons, but I think the main one is that he always manages to write one hell of a story. The added illustrations were the icing on the cake here. This was the ...
Cycle of the Werewolf is a very short and amazing story that won't take long to finish. It is perfect for those who don't have that much time available to read. I loved how it is broken up, separated by the month and the pictures are super cool and somewhat gruesome.
Let's get a few things out of the way: First, this is a classic. Second, there's only one version of this book that counts, and that's Plume's 1983 trade paperback. Third, the film adaptation, "Silver Bullet" (written for the screen by Stephen King), is a deeper overall experience: better character ...
Every-day life in a small town in Maine is disrupted when a werewolf comes tearing through, literally. He appears every full moon for a few months straight and takes out a couple people while putting everyone in town on edge. His targets and victims are random... at first. The only thing connecting ...
Not a bad short story. I was thinking about halfway through that it would be a great thing to read to your kids as the Halloween season approaches, but there are some dicey moments and the ever present language issues one inevitably finds in King works. It's easy to see why this one is out of print....
