Could of been great May 17, 2002
By Cheryl C. Nazzaro The first seven pages of this book made me believe it would be a real page turner. After that things went amiss. You never really discover what motivated certain main characters to behave the way they did, or why. You also never find out what happened to certain characters, they are just dropped. I also expected a book that involved werewolves throughout, although that too left me disappointed. The worst of it was all the type o's I found. It got to the point where I just wanted to start circleing them out of frustration. I could go on but then I would give away the entire story line and if any one is still interested in reading this book that would be unfair.

Can't understand the rave reviews Nov 21, 2004
By Todd Ellner
"biblioholic, not in recovery"
I just can't understand why the reviewers here like this book so much. Character development is weak at best. The pacing is disjointed and jerky. The dialog is stilted. I can't remember who talked about "disbelief suspended by the neck until dead, dead, dead", but it seems appropriate here. Supernatural, quasi-natural and pseudo-scientific explanations are jumbled together without any thought or consistency. The villains are cardboard, but that's alright because everyone else is.
It's just a bad book overall. And it's not even frightening.
Customers should save their money and avoid this book

This Book Rocks Mar 27, 2004
By Alex Russell This is a great story. Classic horror where anyone could be ripped to shreads at any moment. If you read this book, don't get to like any of the characters too much, they might very well be next on the butcher's list!

Not just lycanthropes Mar 13, 2003
Gripping horror is often about the desires, both positive and negative, surrounding the family. Such is the case with Richard Leefs novel, a tale of brotherly competition gone bad illuminated by the supernatural. When a down-on-his-luck photographer accidentally shoots photos of a murder, he becomes the target for supernatural vengeancecor was he the target to begin with? The werewolf is perhaps one of those classic monsters most rich with symbolic possibilities, and Lee employs here an interesting conceit. When horror works, it not only scares us, it illuminates something dark in all of us. We look forward to more from this writer

Chilling Jun 17, 2002
By L.A.Mackay Blood of the Wolf, left me panting for more! The characters where well developed and showed distinct, individual personality's that you either loved or hated! The story line was very gripping, a real page turner! Richard is a very natural story teller and I look forward to more tales from this creative novelist! L.A.Mackay
