As the synopsis shows, it is a book about werewolves, but surprisingly you do not get to the werewolf action until the last quarter of the book. However, the story grabs you with first chapter and does not let go until the finish. The characters are amazing. The main character is far from your normal run the mill female protaganist. As a male reader, I usually do not like female leads unless they are "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" ass kickers. While this lead can kick ass, she is a much more believable "real life" female lead. Relying on guile and wit, more than brawn. Of course her Navy training with demolitions and weapons comes in handy more than once in the book.
While the main character is great, it is the amazing supporting characters that really shine. I actually woke up my better half with my barely suppressed laughter numerous times, as I stayed up till the wee hours reading this book cover to cover. Some memorable quotes:
"The boy is every woman's type. I could rent him out the Mormons so they don't have to electrocute their lesbos anymore."
also,
"Next time you come around here, I'm gonna fill you so full of rock salt people will lick your ass before they take a shot of tequila!"
