BAD MOON RISING

In a world in which wolves and bears turn human and back again, and demonic monsters seek their deaths, can a furry young couple find love? As in ROMEO AND JULIET, the families oppose the union of Fang the werewolf and Aimee the werebear, but they’re determined to defy the adults. It's impressive how quickly narrator Holter Graham accepts the strange world of this novel. Kenyon’s writing is so strong that there’s no room for disbelief. Much of the credit goes to Graham. When he delivers the accounts of wolves turning into people, it all sounds perfectly reasonable. Sound effects are unnecessary to make the fights ring true—Graham’s voice is enough.
