Reviews

[Stephen Lee · Rating 5 out of 5]

Long Claws is an interesting book with creatures from another world who seem a bit like werewolves. The imagery of the creatures and the other world are very vivid. The storyline is a thrilling ride through terror at the hands of the otherworldly creatures who have managed to reopen the path between dimensions to Earth. I highly recommend the book.
