Review: Werewolf at the Western Front by Shane Carrow

Okay, on to book two in the series, Werewolf on the Western Front. It’s 1916 and the height of World War II. Sam Carter and Lucas Avery are back – Sam serving with the Americans after sorting out his problems with the French Foreign Legion, and Lucas with British Intelligence. They find themselves at Kilometre Zero, near the Swiss border, where things are relatively quiet. But, of course, that won’t last.

A series of gruesome killings are blamed on wild animals, but eventually our experts in the supernatural begin to suspect something more sinister is at work. A relic found in a German trench is connected to an ancient werewolf legend, leading to rumors and suspicion. Eventually, the soldiers come face to face with an unspeakable horror and have to face the fact that this creature from their nightmares is very, very real.

I loved Sam and Lucas working together again! Once again the story is well-researched and full of historical detail. We learn that Lucas did not escape the vampire in the first book entirely unscathed, giving him a measure of power that he is reluctant to use for fear of losing his soul.

You can find Werewolf at the Western Front on Amazon.
