The Wolf Gift

Összefoglaló

Anne Rice's legendary 'Vampire Chronicles' immersed us in the mythology, lives and loves of a motley crew of undead; they defined a genre. And now she has another age-old story in her sights: the terrifying werewolf... The werewolf is the classic monster of horror fiction  dark, gothic, with supernatural depth and power  but here it is reimagined and reinvented with all Anne Rice's supernatural sympathy and inventiveness, as a romantic being, a potentially tragic figure bestowed with the gift of transformation and transcendence. Only Anne Rice could make us wonder if it's possible to love a man-beast but, in The Wolf Gift's hero Reuben, we have a brand new hero for a brand new audience. The vampire is dead... 2012 is the year of the werewolf..
