Product Description

The Werewolf's Kiss is the first book in "The Werewolf Trilogy," a ground-breaking trilogy that follows the history of a clan of werewolves centered around New Orleans. This is the story of Sylvie Marley, a rare creature drawn to the Moon and the night with the urge to run wild in the bayous. She is also in love with the young, handsome werewolf Lucien Drago, son of the Duchess de Marais. She too could be a werewolf if she chose, called as she is by the spirit of the Moon and the family's werewolf curse. Although her father, Andrew Marley managed to lift the curse, Sylvie still has the choice between the life she craves as a werewolf and the life of a normal young woman. However, that choice may be taken from her by a madman seeking power as the new king of the Voodoos. To prove himself, he intends to force Sylvie to become a werewolf with his magic, thereby sealing her fate, and her life, unless he is stopped.

Werewolf Love
I read all three Scotch werewolf books. They are certainly different. I love werewolf books because they are all so different. Every author has a completely different take.

What is so interesting about Cheri Scotch's series is that she manages to combine so many different elements in relatively short books. These books have it all. We have mystery/detective work; historical background and sweeping drama; we have several love stories; supernatural, including voodoo and of course, werewolf folklore; interesting backdrops of New Orleans, as well as other interesting places. We also have interesting personal relationships: parent/child; lovers; revenge; friendship....But most of all, good triumphing over evil. Oh, did I mention the religious storyline? You name an element, it is here.

These books manage to combing countless characters, most of which are included in all three books; and countless storylines without being unhinged or confusing. Holt manages to go back and forth in time periods with different characters and pull it all together in the end.

I liked Cheri Holt's take on how one becomes a werewolf. Her ideas were very different than I have read. I also liked the way she dragged voodoo in and made it part of the wolf-lore. The details of voodoo were as interesting as the wolf details.

I am not going to go into the plotlines of these books, because frankly, I don't think I could. They are all just too complex to describe...and believe me I tried. I was trying to sum it up for a friend and failed miserably.

What I would like to know, is where is Cheri Holt? Why did she write three great books almost ten years ago people are still raving about and then disappear? And where are the book publishers? Hello!! Can we say reprint here? There are still buckets off money to made with her wonderful books...

A Unique Tale
I am not a regular reader of Lycanthropy (Werewolf) books however I decided to give this one a try. I found out that I have been missing out. This book is an excellent read. This book is just one of three. I look forward to the other two. (2nd coming out in October 2003 & the 3rd coming out in January 2004) Buy this book & you will not be disappointed.

Sincerely,

Jenjaylynn

absolutely the best werewolf book written
Cheri scotch is the cream of the crop for werewolf lovers. instead of writting werewolves a demonic monsters like most writers do. she write of a werewolf who is both human and so much more. I wish she would write more books about werewolves. To Qoute someone "she does for werewolves what Anne Rice did for Vampire".
