Product Details


Product Description

Ingram

A teenager finds himself walking through a nightmarish world where the most popular speed metal band of the day changes into werewolves more frequently than they change keys. Alternately terrifying and darkly humorous, Wild Blood combines the entire mythology of werewolves with a hip rock-n-roll sensibility. Original.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wolfchild's Review of Wild Blood, Sep 6 2001
By Wolfchild (Evansville, IN) - See all my reviews
Well, to be quite honest, I could NOT put this book down. I found it to be a very entertaining book and it was VERY well written. I used to own this book until it was stolen from me and I'm very sad that it was. Every time I read it, I see something I didn't see before!

The story begins with Skinner Cade, away at college only to hear that his mother is dying in the hospital. He goes to see her and on her deathbed, it is revealed to him that he was adopted! Things begin to pick up from there as Skinner is thrown into a wild mix of constant action and werewolf society!

This book is a real page turner and I THOROUGHLY enjoyed every page! I give this book a VERY DESERVING 5 stars! Kudos to Nancy A. Collins!

1.0 out of 5 stars Not worth the read, Aug 7 2001
By cynister "cynister" (seattle, wa United States) - See all my reviews
After getting a chance to read Laurell K. Hamilton, Wild Blood should be tossed into the trash. Even though its about werewolves and not vampires, the book is lackluster and the characters are dull and boring. Its too easy to guess where the plot is going, there are absolutely no surprises. Its a simple and quick read (took me an hour and a half to get through), which doesn't manage to get the reader involved in the story. I wish I had never stumbled across the author.

3.0 out of 5 stars Nice Wolf....Story could have been better... 3 1/2 stars, Jan 22 2000
By MDK67 (Kernersville, NC USA) - See all my reviews
After reading other books by Nancy Collins, this book fell short of my expectations. The story had a stong beginning but slowed down and became a little far fetched even for a Werewolf story. It seemed like the main charter was directed throughout the entire story. From how he found the band of werewolf's/to the great meeting/to the final battle. Just to many unrelated occurrences needed to happen for this story to work. I would recommednd this book for any Nancy Collins fan (I am a big fan of her work) but this would not be on my must read list.

5.0 out of 5 stars Way Cool!
I absolutely loved this book! It doesn't base everything to the old legends on vargr and it goes deeper into how they live and act. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars An interesting and original werewolf tale.
This is an innovative and fresh horror novel. Collins dares to be different with her monsters, changing them from your typical Boris Karloff and Christopher Lee types to a more... Read more

2.0 out of 5 stars Nancy Collins can do better--much better!
After reading the Sonya Blue Trilogy and A Dozen Black Roses I wanted to read more of Nancy Collins. Unfortunately, Wild Blood must have been written for the bucks. Read more
