Publisher's summary

The Wolfman is one of the great classics of modern horror. Now, based on the upcoming film, is a terrifying new novel written by Jonathan Maberry, based on the screenplay by Andrew Kevin Walker and David Self based on a motion picture screenplay by Curt Siodmak.

Lawrence Talbot's childhood ended the night his mother died. After he left the sleepy Victorian hamlet of Blackmoor, he spent decades recovering and trying to forget. But when his brother's fiancée tracks him down to help find her missing love, Talbot returns home to join the search. He learns that something with brute strength and insatiable bloodlust has been killing the villagers, and that a suspicious Scotland Yard inspector has come to investigate.

As Talbot pieces together the gory puzzle, he hears of an ancient curse that turns the afflicted into werewolves when the moon is full. Now, if he has any chance at ending the slaughter and protecting the woman he has grown to love, Talbot must destroy the vicious creature that stalks the woods surrounding Blackmoor. But as he hunts for the nightmarish beast, a simple man with a tortured past will uncover a primal side to himself . . . one he never imagined existed.

Fantastic Book

Great book and outstanding performance of the narrator!!! One of the best books I've listened too so far

Dracula's Brother

This is truly the ultimate epitome of werewolf media. Maberry was the perfect author for this project. It really couldn't have been better or more iconic. It felt like reading Dracula for the first time.

This author is terrible

I already love the story, so all he had to do was not fuck it up, well that was too much to ask apparently. He just tried too hard. I guess he was trying to be extra poetic or something but it just came off like a student trying to woo a lit professor or something. please, tone that shit down some next time homie

It could have been a layup

Overall it was okay. I can just hope they try again with a different author. Some of the dialogue was cringe inducing.

Enjoyable

Fun version and the narrator does an excellent job. If you saw the movie with Benecio del Toro you'll still really enjoy as you get all the details of changing into and being a werewolf.

great rendition not my favorite

love the multi author and multicast books is there one for the original wolfman thanks keep up the good work

so so predictable but fun

Well, I asked for it - The wolfman is well know and sure enough i could predict everything that was going ot happen before it did and normally that's ok but there just isnt enough action for it to be ok here. but its a fun, old english werewolf tale.

wolfman

it was terrific I loved the movie and audiobook, it stayed true to the story line

Excellent book!! Wonderfully written!!

This adaptation of The Wolfman was in a word: PHENOMENAL!! Highly recommend to anyone interested!! I actually enjoyed this more than the movie; and I loved the movie! Seriously good read. The narrator is on-point with his timing, accents, tone of voice - all of it. And the story is beautifully written capturing every little detail and emotion.

Excellent read

Mayberry does not disappoint. Can’t wait for more from this author. He creates a new view of monsters.
