He ran, but he couldn't run fast enough. Faster. Faster. The storm roaring on his heels. Faster. His heart, pounding. A banshee scream in his ears. Faster.... And a change exploded in him. Dark hairs burst from his hands and arms. He felt his spine contort, bowing his shoulders. His hands---no longer hands---touched the earth. He ran faster, his body whipsawing, and he began to rip from his clothes...." It is 1944. A message from Paris warns Allied Intelligence of something big in the works---something which might have serious implications for D-Day. The only way to get more information from the agent in Paris---now closely watched by the Gestapo---is to send in a personal courier. Russian émigré Michael Gallatin is picked for the job. In retirement as a secret agent since a grisly episode in North Africa, Gallatin is parachuted into occupied France, on a mission which will take him to the festering heart of the Third Reich on the scent of doomsday. As a master spy, Gallatin has proved he can take on formidable foes---and kill them. As a passionate lover, he attracts beautiful women. But there is one extra factor which makes Michael Gallatin a unique special agent---he is a werewolf, able to change form almost at will, able to assume the body of a wolf and its capacity to kill with savage, snarling fury. In the madness of war, Gallatin hunts his prey---ready to out-think his opponents with his finely-tuned brain. Or tear their throats out with his finely-honed teeth.... The Wolf's Hour is a novel by Robert McCammon---master of horror fiction---which breaks the mold of the werewolf novel. It is a remarkable tale of pulse-pounding excitement and a fascinating, complex, and compelling portrayal of the werewolf as noble warrior and conflict-torn being. 588559 1989 The Wolf's Hour total:487|5:133|4:199|3:126|2:26|1:3| 487 1894 643 39 4 4 false false Mon Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2007 Tue Jan 15 08:16:47 -0800 2008 Thu Feb 07 10:49:52 -0800 2008 my werewolf blog, and I fell in love, mainly with the huge balls it took the author to write this book.
