5.0 out of 5 stars Animals, the last great book by a great writing team!
Well, it's near impossible to find this book, but look long and hard and you'll score it like I did! This is a very different take on the werewolf novel, just a great well-written book all around....Vivid characters, story, plot, EVERYTHING! This is the last effort from Skipp and Spector, after The Light At The End, The Cleanup, The Scream, Deadlines, and The Bridge,...

4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty good, with a lot of food for thought, Jan 6 2000

This was Skipp & Spector's last work, and it's a bit uneven to me. I liked it, but it didn't inspire me the way The Scream or Light at the End did. It felt... unfinished, to me, as if there were something more that should have been done but wasn't.

However, it's still excellent by most standards, fast paced and fun to read. It only pales in comparison to some of their earlier works.

For an interesting comparison, read this and then read Nancy Collins' Wild Blood. Two takes on the same theme.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cannot Put It Down!, July 29 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Animals (Mass Market Paperback)
What can I say-- this is my most favorite horror book ever. And that says a lot. I am a huge horror fan, and have read many a book. It takes a lot to scare me, and this book did. It is quite a ride; sexy, scary, suspenseful,etc.. John Skipp and Craig Specter are an outstanding team. You won't be disappointed!

4.0 out of 5 stars fast, fierce, & funny, July 29 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Animals (Mass Market Paperback)
An ordinary guy meets an extraordinary woman and gets taken for a ride (in more ways than one). Between the viscious Nora, her bloodthirsty and jealous ex-boyfriend, and a second, far more virtuous woman, our hero comes to learn the difference between what is simply wild, and what is truly evil.
