With Halloween grinning over the top of the on-coming month at us I thought I would show you one particular type of book I have been reading for the past two years. Here is a picture of my werewolf library.
The fictional books are on the left and compose the series written by Patricia Briggs, Carrie Vaughn, Kitty Armstrong, Keri Arthur and William Gagliani, a number of werewolf anthologies written by lots and lots of authors and the novelization of “The Wolfman” motion picture.
Just the perfect thing to curl up with and read before a dying fire when the wolfbane blooms and the autumn moon is bright.

I recommended McCammon too. I met/lunched with him when I was on committee of the Horror Writers of America. Rick is quite the Southern Gentleman. I dunno if he's ever moved from Birmingham, but that's where I met/lunched with him at the time...
His best work IMO is still Mystery Walk, and magnum opus still Swan Song, but since he covers supernatural subjects only once, and each time in such epic, cinematic fashion, yes, The Wolf's Hour is his perfect treatment.

That is a great one, Stonebear! I love the expressions. Goldenwolf did a Halloween series on the subject.

Yup, you are right of course. However in my "werewolf library" I have the following titles: "Wolf's Bluff", "Wolf's Trap", Wolf's Gambit", "Night of the Wolf" and "Legend of the White Wolf". So a title with the word 'Wolf' in it isn't
Heh, *hangs head in shame* I have "Robert McCammon, the Wolf's Hour" writen on my scratch pad sitting beneath my monitor from when you first told me about Mc Cammon's writing style, Bear Paws.
Duh on me.
However I promise to look for "The Wolf's Hour" this Saturday on my weekly visit to the book store.

I read a book years ago but not sure what happened to it. I have been looking for it ever since. But I do not recall the title nor author. It is a story where a guy gets bit by a werewolf and introduced to a secret society of vampires and werewolves. However, his human father is an avid hunter and ends up hunting his own son when his son admits to being a werewolf. I think he gets shot but then bit by a vampire which of course saves his life. I don't recall much else except of course there was a woman involved (not sure if it was the woman who bit him into a werewolf or a vampire). I also do recall in one part he was in wolf form and humping a doggy bitch. Not something you see in most stories.
*nods* Yeah, fathers hunting sons would be pretty controversial reading. <j/k>
I've only see that humping bit in wolf form alluded to once when the villainess wondered aloud if the heroine ever had her mate make love to her with he was in his wolf form and she was still human. Of course the heroine, who in the course of the series had already killed a number of bad humans & werewolves by ripping out their throats, would never do anything sexually kinky with her mate. Werewolves, or at least female werewolf authors, do tend to have a screwy sense of morals. :-D

The books come from both sides of the werewolf "spectrum". Nice sociable werewolves who when they are your neighbor send you a polite note telling you that if you don't keep your cat out of their garden they will eat it, all the way over to the nasty kind that will tear-your-throat-out. Nice. :-D
