review:
'Werewolves: A Hunter's Guide' by Graeme Davis gives you all the information you're likely to need to stalk the vicious creatures.

I learned that there are many different types of werewolves, including viral, shamanic, sorcerous and cursed ones. This covers people who choose and don't choose to be a werewolf. I learned about the different werewolf societies and how werewolves have been used throughout history in some of the greatest wars. I also learned about some of the types of werewolf hunters are out there, either defending us from the creatures or hunting them for sport. The book ends with a nice list for further watching, reading and gaming.

There are some nice subtle nods to pop culture and literature sprinkled throughout the text for discerning readers. I kind of viewed them as Easter eggs but in text form. The art throughout the book is good with original art by Craig Spearing and art from history from various sources. I like the Osprey series and I enjoyed reading this entertaining history of werewolves. It came out in March, but it would be the perfect read for Halloween.

I received a review copy of this ebook from Osprey Publishing and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
