The Original's Return by David Watkins
4.0
I usually avoid books with anything military. I stumbled across this book by posting in a FB book group to find new to me authors. I'm glad the military part was not a huge portion of the story.
By the blurb,you really don't know what you're getting into. It started great with a man falling into some sort of cave, being punctured by old bones, surrounded by demon like drawings, and a swarm of spiders.
There was a really great scene with the eight legged buggers. Gave me chills. I hate those things.
WaRNING SPOILERS AHEAD
Anyways, the man survives the thirty foot fall , amazingly without a scratch. His hospital records ding the military,and they send a team to watch him. The man doesn't know it, but he's a werewolf of some sort now. Then there's a ton of action. The wolves want their leader, the military wants to weaponize him... And all he wants to do is go home to his wife and child.
I enjoyed this book more than I expected. I hate that it ended so abruptly, leading into a sequel.
