The Wolf Gift
ByPublisher Description
NATIONAL BESTSELLER • “Vintage Anne Rice—a lushly written, gothic … metaphysical tale. This time, with werewolves.” —The Wall Street Journal
When Reuben Golding, a young reporter on assignment, arrives at a secluded mansion on a bluff high above the Pacific, it’s at the behest of the home’s enigmatic female owner. She quickly seduces him, but their idyllic night is shattered by violence when the man is inexplicably attacked—bitten—by a beast he cannot see in the rural darkness. It will set in motion a terrifying yet seductive transformation that will propel Reuben into a mysterious new world and raise profound questions. Why has he been given the wolf gift? What is its true nature—good or evil? And are there others out there like him?

“I mostly liked it till the last 200 pages it just focused to much on the history and such instead of focusing on the plot, the time and everything at the end was clearly rushed as for there was just one focus. It left me debating whether to read the next book or not since near the end I had gotten very confused and bored with it and I didn’t want to read a book I was confused with.”

“I love anything by Anne Rice and her Werewolf tale is a new take on these “monsters””
“Was disappointed by this book, not a patch on Interview with the Vampire, didn’t have the gothic allure of her other books.”
