5.0 out of 5 stars This is the Prequel to "Hunters' Moon" it's where the whole, May 30, 1999

By	Lauren A Starr (Georgia, USA) - See all my reviews

thing started! What started out as a simple camping out, turns into a nightmare! What's worse is that the local werewolf is taking names and his classmates are his victims. But something unexpected happens, and now the cocky hunter has an enemy he hadn't counted on. But which will be the winner in a battle to the Death? Plus learning to deal with being a werewolf isn't so easy either. There's new rules & stuff to learn about. Having a bloodthirsty, bad to the bone male werewolf around doesn't make things any easier. Add to that the fact he's after your friends, and you!

5.0 out of 5 stars Teen Wolf Gone Bad, July 26, 2008

By	MoonbeamDancer "Book Kitty" (Texas) - See all my reviews

The summer before high school starts, Val Sherwood, her friends from the Sunset Hills Junior High Ecology Club, their sponsor Mrs. Castillo and her husband are hiking in the woods; the trip is about two weeks long and they've reached the half way point. That night while telling stories around the fire, one of them a boy named Jay, starts telling a rather spooky one; one he swears is true. Jay swears to them that he turns into a wolf at the full moon; he backs this up with admitting that he was the one that killed a jogger in the middle of town a while back. He also tells them that he'll change tonight and before leaving town, will kill them all and all that will be left is pieces.

At first no one believes him, until later that night when he attacks them, biting Val in the process as they fight back. After getting back she begins to see the changes in her body, she needs to eat and drink more then she normally did, she's got a bad reaction to both garlic and silver, and on the full moon she changes. That doesn't bother her as much as she thought it would, but what does is the fact that Jay is still in town, and he's going after her friends one by one.

This is one of the few werewolf books I have, I got it back in high school I think, and I've loved it ever since. At 16 chapters, it's a quick read but it's entertaining.
