My husband teases me for my love of supernatural elements in novels. When he gets curious about what I'm reading, he asks, "how's your wizard/vampire/werewolf novel going?" One day, he said, "if you want to read some GOOD stuff with werewolves, read this." He tossed me a much-worn copy of Robert McCammon's The Wolf's Hour.
I always love reading something recommended to me by someone I know and love. This was a great opportunity to see what the hubs considered "good". I knew I married him for more than his dashing good looks and sparkling personality...
This book was good. Unlike most of the supernatural junk being cranked out at a ridiculous pace, this novel is not primarily about the supernatural elements. Rather, it is a World War II story who's protagonist just happens to have the ability to morph into a wolf on command. A skill like that definitely comes in handy when fighting the Nazis.
Of course, he's also incredibly sexy (with at least one or two juicy "not-for-the-kids" scenes tossed in to keep you interested) and there is a love story included for good measure. Action, adventure, (ahem)action...all great elements to an enjoyable novel.
In short, it was a good one. Thanks, sweet hubs!
