5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent new approach to story-telling, October 23, 2005

This review is from: Cry Wolf (Paperback)

This is a sort of hybrid approach to books that I had not seen before; part-soft cover novel, part-comic book. The story line is artful and imaginative with a brand new setting for the reader. The art-work enhances the story-line beautifully. I was able to read through Cry Wolf in one session and come away feeling taht I had spent my time well. I could see several episodes spun off of this excellent first effort.

4.0 out of 5 stars Old Time Crime Adventure, October 5, 2005

By 

Danielle Czerwony - See all my reviews

This review is from: Cry Wolf (Paperback)

Cry Wolf reminds me of those old time crime movies you see on Turner Classic Moives. Pictures like White Heat and even King Kong. The detective in the story is bitten by a gaint wolf and he also turns into a gaint wolf. His friend is killed by the same wolf but he changes the curse for the detective so that he doesn't kill the innocent. Only when the innocent are in danger or when there is a need for justice does the detective turn into a giant wolf. His friend has some kind of spiritual powers. I had a lot of fun reading this and I hope there are more stories. The art reminds me of Tarzan or Prince Valiant comic strips from the 1930's and 1940's.
