Reminiscent of Frankenstein and the like,
By BusyReading (Arden, NC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The werewolf of Paris, (Paperback)
Frankenstein, Beauty and the Beast... that whole line of thought about the beast that causes so much damage but you still feel for them because their curse is not of their doing. Bertrand (the werewolf) is in the same boat. He doesn't want to be what he is but doesn't know how to escape it. He meets the beautiful French socialite Sophie and believes that his love for her can possibly cure him but of course that doesn't work. While he tries to find answers, he is constantly being hunted or just trying to avoid the possible chance of being found.While there are some pretty gruesome bits in the story to make it creepy, there is alot of human interest to the story as well. You really feel for the characters and question who really is the antagonist in the story. The one fault I had with the plot is Endore's interjections of these long passages of description that don't seem relevant while you're reading. They just appear to be crazy tangents or afterthoughts he wanted to squeeze in. These passages do make sense later on but I found those parts tedious reading. Everything else made for a really good story! Endore packs quite a bit of history into his storytelling which I found very educating and interesting.
