Publisher's summary

When a man sworn to save lives is transformed into a murderous monster, will he be able to stop himself from destroying everything he loves?

Dr. David Bixby is working the night shift in the emergency room when a man is brought in with a gunshot wound. Suffering not just the physical injury, the victim also displays symptoms of a mysterious blood poisoning. Unable to be saved, the man lashes out and bites David in a desperate, dying act.

At first, it seems as if the bite carries no ill effects, but before long, David feels a change inside of him. As the days pass, he finds himself becoming stronger, more aggressive and giving in to his most primal instincts.

As the bewildered physician works to discover what is happening, a stranger confronts him, telling David that he will turn into a savage creature at the next full moon. Worse yet, the man presents him with an impossible choice—end his own life or turn into a bloodthirsty beast.

Will David lose control and spill innocent blood?

Gunther is the savage prequel to My Pet Werewolf. If you like gory monster action, desperate protagonists and dark themes, you'll be thrilled by James Kaine's monstrous story!

Great werewolf story

I am a longtime fan of a good werewolf story and this one hit the spot! It follows the change experienced by Dr. David Bixby after he is bitten by an ER patient. He slowly starts to feel very aggressive emotions, lashing out in anger and thinking about committing horrific deeds.

When he is approached by a man claiming to be a Police detective, he is told that he will soon turn into a werewolf! Of course, David thinks this is a bunch of garbage and continues on with his life. He soon learns the horrible truth and is not sure that he can deal with it. Will he truly lose control under the full moon or can he find a way to stop the urges he is feeling?

The story moves at a fast pace and I found myself feeling very sorry for the horrors visited on the innocent Doctor. There are a few graphic scenes of violence and s*x that some might find disturbing, but the author has done a great job with creating the perfect atmosphere for a werewolf tale.

The narrator did a fantastic job and his performance added a lot to this already terrific tale. I highly recommend this quick story to anyone looking for a great werewolf tale.

Fantasic prequel

After reading My Pet Werewolf, I immediately felt the need to understand Gunther! This book gave me the backstory I needed! My only complaint is I wish it were longer

Great werewolf story …

Gunther is a well written werewolf story that is difficult to put down, I really enjoyed it. The characters were interesting and I was invested right from the beginning. This is a prequel to My Pet Werewolf, which I now plan on reading right away. In my opinion these books can be read in any order without giving anything away. If you enjoy horror I highly recommend this series. I am definitely looking forward to more from this author.

fantastic prequel

Gunther is technically the prequel to 'My Pet Werewolf ' ( which is phenomenal, by the way). I was lucky enough to have the author provide a code to check out the audiobook, and it did not disappoint. I absolutely loved Gunther in the main novel. He was my favorite character, and I really enjoyed being able to hear his story and learn just how he came to end up chained in the cave. While it's a prequel, I personally think its best to read how they were written, novel first.


Fantastic as an audiobook, the narrator tells this man's tragic story beautifully.

Love this series!

Gunther by James Kaine

I’ve been looking forward to reading the next installment of My Pet Werewolf, and it definitely did not disappoint! This was a quick read / listen at 98 pages or just over 2 hours on audio. Tom Jordan does a fantastic job with the narration, as usual.

The story moves fast and keeps you hanging on until the last page of the epilogue. Give it a go and check out MPW too so you can get the full story!

Good Doctor into Evil Werewolf!

Already loving anything dealign with werewolves, this audiobook caught my attention immediately when I first saw it! Very glad that I brought this since I loved all the horror, gore, and brutality of the werewolf! I will say it started off slow and did not care for all the details prior to the werewolf massacre, but once that started, wished for more! Mr. Jordan did an outstanding job bringing this book to life! Loved his deep and at times, scary voice to match the theme of the book! Highly recommend checking this one out if you are looking for a bloody werewolf read!

Heartbreaking

I received an audio code for an honest review. I loved this. It was too short in my opinion because I could have kept listening for a few more hours. This is a prequel to My Pet Werewolf and I do think it adds to the experience having read Pet first.

So good

This story was phenomenal and also sad. Poor David, I really feel for him! It’s a great setup to My Pet Werewolf, and I can’t wait to start that!
