Sixteen-year-old Tom Anderson is a typical teen. Ticked off to be spending his summer vacation with his parents and younger brother, Tom storms out of their rented cabin in the Seattle forest, needing some time to himself. Next thing he knows, he's wading in a fast-moving river, with a bear between him and freedom. After being tossed unmercilessly down-river, Tom passes out--and awakes in a strange bed in a strange house.

Tom Anderson is resentful that he has been dragged along on a boring family vacation. He soon learns how much he should have appreciated boring. After being chased by bear in the woods into a open river and getting dragged away by the current, Tom wakes up in a strange bed. He was found and nursed back to health by Marcie, a nurse, and her family. He assumes he must have been hurt pretty badly, as he feels weak and unable to get out of bed, and seems to sleep all the time, but it is not rest...more

This book is pretty good it is about a boy who out in the mountains is knocked out by something when he wakes he's in a bizzare house with really nice people. But it turns out that the family is a pack of werewolfs and they want the main character to join them. He also meets the daughter who isn't evil, in fact she wants to help him out. I enjoyed this book.

This book was pretty interesting and fun to read. The action scenes in this book come one after another. There is hardly ever a dull moment. The characters are interesting and seem very real. I really liked this read.
I really liked the detail about every moment in the book. I liked the different view on werewolves also. In this book they show that werewovles are just like regular people when they aren't in lupine form. The chemistry between the two main characters is also very interesting. T...more

I was looking for filler before the next Stephenie Meyer and Melissa de la Cruz books. This didn't do it for me. It tried too hard to be a horror/monster movie. It had moments of suspense, but the characters were too stereotypical (the bumbling British geek-turned-hero, the runaway who gets into trouble, the overbearing mother, the washed-out villain attempting a comeback, etc.). There was too much gore for my taste, also.

it's an interesting book about a boy who's been captured to mate with a pureblood werewolf. he turns out to be a 'silverblood"-->someone who is resistant to werewolves, but he is eventually turned which makes him an odd type of werewolf called a "wereling" that retains his humanity even when in wolf form.

So far I'm not too impressed with this book. It's okay - but it's not keeping me riveted to it. I have no problem setting this one down...oh well, they can't all be terrific!

Great pacey horror! I loved the fact that it is about werewolves, rather than vampires, who seem to get all the good horror books nowadays.
