Now, as the last of his kind, he is a target for WOCOP (World Organisation for the Control of Occult Phenomenon). Initially, he is willing to be hun...

More like 2.5 stars, and mainly because I thought the book was well written. But it was a real struggle to get through for me. I had pretty much had to force myself to finish this because I hate quitting books, especially when they're not technically terrible. The language and style was exceptional,...

The prose in this novel just enthralled me and blew me away.By no means a paranormal romance, or a light YA style urban fantasy read. Instead we have a story that manages to be grim, stark, and poetic without contradicting itself.

Darker and much more exciting than I expected. Might be the first werewolf novel I've read that's clearly intended for an adult audience.

The premise of this book was good, but there was way too much werewolf ennui in the first half and a lot of repetition in the second half. For example, the repeated description of the werewolf stink of Talulah. We get it. Werewolves have a stink. Vampires have a different stink. You don't need to re...

Glen Duncan has given us the werewolf back after it was so rudely hijacked by fluffy bunnies and turned into something more closely resembling a singing Disney forest creature. I don't often rant within a review, but I must say, the only thing that shocks me when it comes to this book is other revie...

I wanted to like this book, but I just didn't. It had it's good points. I liked the narration style, and there were plenty of moments where I thought the writing was clever. I liked that this was a more traditional style werewolf story, rather than an urban fantasy spin. And yet, this book fell flat...

I don't know why but I really didn't like this book. I just was so irritated by the main character and his overactive sex drive, his disdain for women, and his ennui with life as a werewolf. I had to put it down. Sorry, just couldn't go on...
