Another good book from Jonathan Janz. This one was a real bloodbath! The characters were memorable and the story was interesting throughout. I do wish the lore was a little more developed but I think Janz must've been going for something quick and nasty with this one, which he achieved.
High school reunions are bad enough on their own, but what really takes the cake is having a bloodthirsty werewolf show up to kill several of your old friends. Now, Duane and Savannah are scrambling to find shelter as their former classmates rapidly succumb to their newfound primal urges.
If there's one theme in horror that I don't reach for often at all, it's the classic werewolf story. Even as a kid, werewolves just never frightened me much, and it's always been hard for me to find werewolf plots that intrigued me much. That said, when I saw that Wolf Land was being re-released, I couldn't pass it up, if only because I'm so fond of Jonathan's writing in general.
“You are wayward lambs.”
literally no one,
this is what werewolf horror is supposed to feel like: gruesome, bloody, dark, angry, messy, and downright terrifying.
this book is dark as hell.
Wolf Land
What may have been my favorite part was the way this book tackles misogyny:
damn,
at the end of the day, it's the ladies who get to kick the most ass,
layers of world-building begging to be further explored,
