I don't think I have read a book in the horror genre before but I have to say, I am very glad that Primal Creatures was my first one. It sure sets the bar high!

As you can read in the blurb above, something is killing the residents on Goose Island! I was intrigued because I had never heard of rougarous before! I mean the whole werewolf thing is old as time pretty much but the angle that the rougarou is from the state of Louisiana...I thought that was pretty cool.

Primal Creatures has plenty of mystery to it as Wyatt Thomas delves deeper and deeper into the monks' history and background!

Ooooh, the monks!! I SO had them pegged! From almost the beginning of the secretive behavior of brother Domenic, I just knew he HAD to have SOMETHING to do with Rance Parker's death! Now normally I would be turned off of the book if I knew what was going to happen, or at least be a little forlorn, but not this time folks! I wanted to know HOW they were involved. I was thinking that because the monks had to sell some rights to their property, they eventually wanted to re-nig on the deal after seeing the comings and goings of the the ritzy promiscuous indulgences there. I thought they came from a long line of rougarous and to scare people off their land they were tearing some of them apart!

Am I right in these assumptions? I can't tell you...you must read it for yourself!

I felt the characters in Primal Creatures were believable and reacted like you or I would if someone told us there was a werewolf running around the place.

The book was definitely a page turner and I ate it up from the beginning! The only reason it took more than a couple days to finish was because my personal life. As you know, summer is out, blah blah blah, LOL. I kept trying to figure out who the rougarou was on the cover and when I did, OMG...didn't really see that coming!

My favorite character was Professor Quinn! I loved his relationship with Sierra and imagine him as this sometimes flighty, old guy who's super smart, acts brusque but is really very lovable and very into birds, LOL.

The nail biting suspense continues throughout Primal Creatures all the way up to the climax of the book that will probably leave you with paper cuts, you'll be turning the page so fast!
