review 1: Unlike Deadlier...than the male I didn't have much background to this book. I knew it was about werewolves and Jack the Ripper. The story, unlike many Jack the Ripper books, gives you a background and reasons behind his attacks. It is graphic in both the violence and the depiction of the Victorian era and gives an insight to the deprivation that the lower classes were subject to.Again I admit to being the author's husband and my bias towards her books.I can tell you she spent a great deal of time researching Jack the Ripper and studying autopsies and police reports and court transcripts of inquests. The story is fiction based on real history.
review 2: I watched this book develop over several years with the story line run past me every evening.I felt I knew the... more book from end to end and didn't actually pick it up till on holiday 3 months after publication.I couldn't put it down and found even though I thought I had an idea of the story it was presented with such detail and thought, I didn't really know it after all.This is not just a story of the long life of a werewolf but gives background and reason behind the legends we all thought we knew.Thoroughly captivating and very graphic in some places, with several sections where you think to yourself 'I didn't expect that to happen'.I am the husband of the author and yes I am biased but I have tried to be truthful here and I know anyone that reads this will not be disappointed and come chasing me. less
