This is another page-turner from a talented author! It’s the sequel to The Wolf’s Moon because it deals with some of the original characters and takes place in the same vicinity. Also, we learn more about the background of the two main personalities from the first book. I enjoyed that!
However, this novel takes the crisis in a new direction. It deals with an almost larger-than-life threat in the water, not on land.
I was so disappointed at how short this story was! I was done reading before I knew it! As with the first book, this is the perfect book for lovers of suspense/mystery/horror. It blends the right element of all three. It’s a quick, easy read that will take you out of your comfortable world for a time. That being said, it does contain the usual amount of violence found in the horror genre.
Again, the characters are completely believable. They aren’t stereotypes at all. These people are complicated, fallible human beings who are familiar with pain and struggles of all kinds.
The plot keeps us guessing until the end. Here are just a few examples:
• What are the animals that are terrorizing the river?
• Why do they appear to be slightly different from indigenous breeds?
• Will someone be able to stop them? Who? How? When? Where?
I highly recommend this book to any fan of horror. Frankly, it’s at the top of the genre in both plotting and characterization.
