Reviews
"The Wolfman takes a tried and true wooly-booger icon and turns it on its ear and gives it a fresh coat of fur and new sheen on its very sharp teeth. Nicholas Pekearo has the wolf chops and the writing chops to make this horror/thriller a must read."
Joe R. Lansdale
"Consider Lon Chaney Jr. meets The Incredible Hulk--as imagined by Charles Bukowski. The Wolfman's great fun. My suggestion? Don't wait for the next full moon. Pounce!"
Jack Ketchum
"The too-short life of Nicholas Pekearo was both triumph and tragedy. He died a hero's death, sacrificing his own life to save others. And now comes The Wolfman, a brilliant, insightful, overpowering debut from a writer who studied, listened, and learned before he took his shot...and centered the bulls-eye. Published posthumously, this "debut" novel is a triumph."
