Review: A Werewolf Tale that Draws Enough Blood to Keep the Reader's Interest.
Rating: 3 out of 5

Lycanthrope by Robert Clark is a supernatural thriller that straddles the line between being too graphic and too clinical. The kills are particulary gory and well written. The characters are a group of college students and a detective who come off as too stiff and predictable. At it's heart, the story is about a werewolf staking these college students over the course of the novel. There's some suspense to make it worth your while, but this novel screams for another draft to shore up the characterizations and to mend the minor mistakes that hurt the flow of the chapters. It ends with a set-up to the second book of the series that's handled well enough to keep me interested in the sequel. As much as I wanted to like this book, I have to give it just three stars.
