Descripción editorial
"...this is what werewolf horror is supposed to feel like: gruesome, bloody, dark, angry, messy, and downright terrifying." - Howling Libraries
Aside from a quaint amusement park, the small town of Lakeview offers little excitement for Duane, Savannah, and their friends. They’re about to endure their ten-year high school reunion when their lives are shattered by the arrival of an ancient, vengeful evil.
The werewolf.
The first attack leaves seven dead and four wounded. And though the beast remains on the loose and eager to spill more blood, the sleepy resort town is about to face an even greater terror. Because the four victims of the werewolf’s fury are changing. They’re experiencing unholy desires and unimaginable cravings. They’ll prey on the innocent and the depraved. They’ll settle old scores and act on their basest desires. Soon, they’ll plunge the entire town into nightmare.
Lakeview is about to become Wolf Land.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
A 10-year high school reunion is the catalyst for lots of furry, toothy scares in this gruesome yet entertaining gorefest. After a group of old friends is attacked by a werewolf, it's up to Savannah Summers and Duane McKidd, the only two who weren't bitten or slashed by the slavering menace, to save the rest of Lakeview from becoming dinner for the marauding, vicious creatures. Meanwhile, all of their friends are undergoing supernatural transformations that reveal their true selves. Some cling to their humanity, some embrace the darkness, and one seeks vengeance, but all are changed forever. There are guts and blood aplenty, but Janz (The Nightmare Girl) gives this chiller depth with his explorations of the human psyche, and some humor provides balance. Those with weak stomachs need not apply, and the abuse that one character suffers at the hands of her family is particularly horrific, but those who make it through are in for an impressive and bloody climax.
