"A brilliantly original thriller, a love story, a witty treatise on male (and female) urges, even an existential musing on what it is to be human. Get one for yourself and one for the Twilight fan in your life." -James Medd, The Word (UK) "Space should be cleared for this violent, sexy thriller . . . The answer to Twilight that adults have been waiting for." -Courtney Jones, Booklist "Yes, there are vampires here . . . But don't give this book to Twilight groupies; the frank tone, dark wit, and elegant, sophisticated language will likely do them in. . . . smart, original, and completely absorbing. Highly recommended." - Barbara Hoffert, Library Journal (Starred review) "The best books are blurb defying; they're far too potent for a flimsy net of adjectives ever to capture them. I could say that The Last Werewolf is smart, thrilling, funny, moving, beautifully written, and a joy to read, and this would all be true. But it would also be a woeful understatement of what Glen Duncan has accomplished with his extraordinary novel. The only useful thing I can offer you is a simple admonishment. Stop reading my words, and start reading his. Trust me: you'll be happy you did." -Scott Smith, author of The Ruins "A magnificent novel. A brutal, indignant, lunatic howl. A sexy, blood-spattered page-turner, beautifully crafted and full of genuine suspense, that tears the thorax out of the horror genre to create something that stands rapturous and majestic and entirely on its own." -Nick Cave, "Glorious . . . I can''t help thinking that wry, world-weary Jake Marlowe would make a fabulous dinner companion. Just not during a full moon." --Justin Cronin, The New York Times Book Review "Duncan has finally driven a stake through vampire supremacy . . . Cerebral and campy, philosophical and ironic, The Last Werewolf is a novel that''s always licking its bloody lips and winking at us . . . A dark thriller that explodes with enough conspiracies, subterfuges and murders to raise your hackles. Not to mention such hot werewolf sex that you''ll be tempted to wander out under the full moon yourself next month." --Ron Charles, The Washington Post "Muscular and breathtaking. . . . When you finish reading this novel, you''re going to feel full. But it''s a good feeling of fullness, just as Jacob feels after one of his moonlight rampages."-- Los Angeles Times "A shocking new take on the werewolf legend . . . Intelligent, fast-moving, creative, and thrilling." -- The Daily Beast "A clever narrative with a memorable antihero at its feral, furry heart." --Thom Geier, Entertainment Weekly "Quirky and brilliant--and definitely not for kids." -- Kirkus Reviews "Savvy and exceptionally literate, this is one smart modern werewolf tale. . . [A] fine supernatural thriller." -- Publishers Weekly "The Last Werewolf is like an updated version of Dracula , only for werewolves, and as rewritten by Bret Easton Ellis . . . In its own blood-crazed and sex-dazed way, The Last Werewolf makes the case for literature." --Stephen Poole, The Guardian (UK) "Sexy, funny, blisteringly intelligent . . . Duncan is the cleverest literary horror merchant since Bram Stoker." --Kate Saunders, The Times (London) "Okay, no hyperbole, just an admission: I loved this novel. It''s a howl, a rager, a scream. May The Last Werewolf put a stake through the heart of humorless, overwrought vampire sagas. Two big thumb-claws up!" --Chris Bohjalian, author of Secrets of Eden , The Double Bind , and Midwives "A brilliantly original thriller, a love story, a witty treatise on male (and female) urges, even an existential musing on what it is to be human.

Synopsis
Glen Duncan delivers a powerful, sexy new version of the werewolf legend, a riveting and monstrous thriller--with a profoundly human heart. Jake Marlowe is the last werewolf. Now just over 200 years old, Jake has an insatiable appreciation for good scotch, books, and the pleasures of the flesh, with a voracious libido and a hunger for meat that drives him crazy each full moon. Although he is physically healthy, Jake has slipped into a deep existential crisis, considering taking his own life and ending a legend that has lived for thousands of years. But there are two dangerous groups--one new, one ancient--with reasons of their own for wanting Jake very much alive.

- 1***i (38)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThe book arrived in a flimsy envelope and has some bent corners as a result, but nothing serious. It was described by the seller as in Very Good condition, but there's some staining on the pages and the cover has multiple creases that are clearly not from shipping. But, while the listed condition was inaccurate, the book I received is still well worth the price.
- h***i (1382)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseI sent the seller a friendly request after buying, asking them to please not ship the book in a thin plastic mailer. My message was sent back to me, the seller never saw it or replied. Ebay said that the seller blocks messages. The Book was in fact shipped in a thin plastic mailer. It arrived okay, but sometimes they don't. Bought another book from a different seller at the same time who replied to my message and who ships his books in boxes. Guess who I'll be a repeat buyer with?The Last Kaiser: The Life of Wilhelm II (#336027746972)
- e***b (140)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseI would recommend this seller to anyone. Great communication,fast shipping,item as described,good packaging, great price.Would buy from this seller again.
