Synopsis(back cover) If you are a cautious backpacker or lone traveler, and think you might find yourself forced to spend time in remote forests, desolate mountains, creepy moors, or ancient ruins, this is the guidebook you've been looking for. Packed with advice on what to do if you should come face-to-jaws with a werewolf, this handy little book also offers detailed stories of human encounters with werewolves. And be sure to check the back of the book for a special quiz that tests your werewolf knowledge., Werewolves are more popular than ever--thanks largely to recent film hits--and this highly entertaining new title tells readers everything they've ever wanted to know about those terrifying preternatural members of the canis lupus family. Newcomers to werewolf lore will be surprised to learn that there are many different werewolf varieties. Alphas are the leaders, and Betas are unwilling but deadly members of a werewolf pack. But there are also Benandanti, holy men who change into wolves in order to do battle with witches . . . and Loup-garoux, werewolves who can change from man to wolf even during daylight hours. The more ordinary werewolves achieve their terrible transformations from man to beast only by the light of the Moon. Author Robert Curran also notes that Christopher, the mysterious saint venerated in the Roman Catholic Church, has many werewolf characteristics. In addition, this book tells readers where werewolves live, describes their telltale traits, such as hairy palms, advises on how to avoid becoming a werewolf, and gives tips on what werewolf victims should do when they are attacked. More than 100 moody and atmospheric color illustrations accompany this intensely readable text.

  • Much more than I expected

    It's a small book with a cover that feels like leather and an elastic band that keeps it closed when you aren't reading it so it doesn't flop open when you're not reading it or you drop it (every book should have this feature). It's filled with great illustrations to go with the stories which most books don't have and the text is a perfect size for all readers. It goes to prove that paperbacks don't have to have paper covers which is why I rarely buy those as it's not long before the covers fold or get torn which is the primary reason I like hardcovers. I bought this on sale just on a whim but if I knew what it really was like, I would have paid a higher price for it. I am very pleased with this purchase.
