This CPC book takes Howard's two werewolf stories, "In the Forest of Villefere" and "Wolfshead," and combines them into one tale previously adapted by Roy Thomas and penciled by Tony DeZuniga. CPC also includes a second, original story set in modern times written by Roy Thomas and drawn by Steve Lightle.
