Secret of the Wolf by Susan Krinard

It's a dime store romance, but I'm desperate for a werewolf read. And the leading lady takes care of family-less/homeless crazies. How can I not at least check it out.

Have you read the Last Werewolf trilogy, by Glen Duncan?

Not to my recollection. I'll add them to the list. Thanks, Mike 8)

Sadly I'm not the best reader (I can read just fine but my attention span is just 'no'), so my werewolf book library is fairly small. Considering how hard it is to find good books containing the topic of lycanthropes, it's actually a fairly impressive little collection if I do say so myself.

It will hold your attention.

Murder on the Orient Express

by Agatha Christie



This is the first Agatha Christie novel I've read and what an incredible 'whodunit' it is. The mystery is interesting, the cast rich with colorful characters and the ending reveal was fantastic and unexpected. I am definitely interested in reading the other adventures of detective Hercule Poirot as well as more of Christie's other work.

Stopped reading Incarnate by Ramsey Campbell. Not much was happening half way through except lots of exposition on the people in the story. And that wasn't interesting either. Cut-out characters.

Now rereading Dark Fall by Stephen Laws, read it about 10-12 years ago. An original idea, well through out and presented. Action right keeps happening. Very enjoyable. The writing itself isn't fantastic, but its not too bad. I recommend this book, 6/10 which is a decently high ranking from me. Its about a certain kind of storm which causes people to disappear. Which is a simplification so I do not provide much spoiler info. Also a lot of police procedural stuff. It takes place in the UK...forget which city though. Somewhere in north England I think.

Wife had a good anthology book which I'm perusing...just finished "The Monkey's Paw" by WW Jacobs. What a great spare downright creepy story that is!
