Mongrels by Stephen Graham Jones

5.0

---

My new favorite take on werewolf lore. This actually takes into account how this lifestyle would effect people in terms of money, of lost family members, of education. The exploration of how human lifestyles today cause so much danger for wolves, both were- and otherwise, was also fascinating. And that's all before we go into the rich character work that makes up this book.

Absolutely worth every second. Highly recommended for any horror fans or just those who want to read about monsters in general. And anyone who likes finely crafted characters. And worldbuilding.
