Martin is a master story teller, and his Werewolves are interesting. I find them similar to the rpg Werewolf the Apocalypse, actually, in all the good ways-leaving out the clans and such, but a genetic link as well as infected, and ability to change at will, not just on the full moon. Add in genetic mishaps and a town run by the things, and you've got a good story going. It will not disappoint. Martin is a master story teller, and his Werewolves are interesting.

Very well written. Martin has written at least one other werewolf-skinning themed story, that one being set in a generic fantasy world. Very well written.

I can't remember the name, I think it was Dream Songs or something along those lines. In any case what I do remember is that the story was interesting and I read it several times over. May or may not indicate anything as I had no other entertainment besides the anthology available. Ah yes, the story is also somewhat distrurbing with the skinning and stuff. At the very least the werewolves don't follow the Hunk stereotype that was pointed out in the latest post. Or at least not until they hit the screen.

It has a ton of great authors in it, including George RR Martin. It doesn't list story titles, but based on the authors listed and their existing works, I'm willing to bet the stories are not written especially for this book, and further, that Martin's contribution is Skin Trade. link: http://www.amazon.com/Curse-Full-Moon-Werewolf-Anthology/dp/1569757887 There is a werewolf anthology called Curse of the Full Moon coming out next month.
