Title: WEREling
Author: Steve Feasey
Publisher: Feiwel & Friends, 288 Pages (April 27, 2010)
Preorder here: Amazon, Borders, The Book Depository
Synopsis: Fourteen-year-old Trey Laporte is not a kid anymore. Not after the day he wakes up in agony—retina-splitting, vomit-inducing agony. His clothes are torn. His room is trashed.
Enter Lucien Charron, the mysterious, long-lost “uncle” with freakish fire-flecked eyes and skin that blisters in the sun. Suddenly, Trey finds himself living in a luxury penthouse at the heart of a strange and sinister empire built on the powers of the Netherworld—vampires, demons, sorcerers, and djinn.
And there is a girl—Alexa Charron—who is half vampire, half human, and insanely pretty, with powers all of her own. Trey is falling for her.
Trey is training night and day to control the newly discovered power lurking inside him. Now, demons are closing in on every side, and the most psychopathic bloodsucker to rock the Netherworld wants to destroy him. Above all, he must face one terrifying question:
Is he a boy . . . or is he a beast?
Okay - the cover is a bit creepy with this one, but the story sound good if you ask me. What do you guys think? Anyone else looking forward to this book?

I got a review copy of this book and really enjoyed it!
ReplyDeleteI think it is safe to assume that the lead character is a werewolf, because seriously I had enough of vampires as the main and lead characters. The half-human, half-vampire (Dhampyr) is a little bit overused character (Blade, Vampire Hunter D, etc) so that's a minus point.
ReplyDeleteOverall I think I'll give this book a try just for the sole purpose that the lead character is werewolf.
