Reviews

[Norm S · Rating 3 out of 5]

This one didn't end in a cliffhanger but there was too much dreaming which did nothing for the story. Also bad ending.

[Paul Pope · Rating 2 out of 5]

Slow moving story line. We spend a lot of time within the main characters head. He is a recently created werewolf and a great deal of the story is spent at controlling his darker-self.
The book ends rather abruptly, leaving a few plot lines unresolved. It appears to be a setup for future chapters.
There are some delightfully macabre descriptors of the carnage of an attack. But there isn’t much horror or suspense in between those moments. We need more monster!
There are racial slurs and violence against people of color. There is brutality of both man and beast. There are some typos in the electronic book.
Cannot recommend.

Good story

The only thing better than one werewolf is two werewolves. The West is not a good place to be - unless you are a wolfman. Someone has to do what's right even if it is something not right. I would recommend reading the first book in the series since the reader had to be able to understand what is going on in this book. I recommend them!

A very enjoyable read

It took no time to get into the book; while I never want to be near a werewolf, I live reading stories of them. The characters were well described and interesting!

Great book

I’m hoping there is more of this story. I want to find out what happens to the crooked Marshall and if any of the other crooks that burned Enricos ranch are alive.

What happened to the rest of the book?

I wouldn't recommend this book to anyone because it ended abruptly and left me hanging with what may have happened to Henrico and Hoby.

Book one was good. Book2 was not. Too many dream sequences and a stupid non-ending ending

Surprising very good

The editing is sloppy
The story line flows good
Like how the Spanish is told in English
I had to read all of them hope there are more.

Werewolf

Hoby and Enrico now share a secret. Something happened on the hunt for the Werewolf terrorizing the town. It is still on the loose. Can it be stopped?
