Like an updated version of Dracula, only for werewolves, and as rewritten by Bret Easton Ellis. * * Guardian * * Playfully brainy... wry, world-weary Jake Marlowe would make a fabulous dinner companion. Just not during a full moon -- Justin Cronin, author of The Passage * * New York Times * * Loaded with beautifully constructed lunatic ravings ... A sublime study in literary elegance. It is bloody (and) brilliant. * * Independent on Sunday * * 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 Sexy, funny, blisteringly intelligent ... Duncan is the cleverest literary horror merchant since Bram Stoker. -- Kate Saunders * * The Times * * Duncan's monstrous narrator makes for memorably rambunctious company * * Times Literary Supplement * * 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. * * Word Magazine * * The Last Werewolf is written with such scandalous ferocity and such grizzly humour it feels like the literary equivalent of howling at the moon. Not since Lon Chaney and John Landis has lycanthropy been such a blast, and Glen Duncan offers more danger, gristle and lunatic brilliance per sentence than any writer I can think of. -- MATT HAIG Remarkable for its humour, eloquence and self-aware intelligence. A deeply human narrative about the nature of story itself. -- STELLA DUFFY Absolutely brilliant. A surreal, dark and unsettling tale that really did put the bite back into the supernatural. In short, I got a real kick out of it. -- Russel McLean
