    An okay read

    It is an interesting story, but the writing style is too confusing to really get wrapped up in it. The plot tended to jump around too much, and half the time I just wanted to get the whole reading process over with so that I could go on to other books.

    Unneeded scenes!

    I am absolutely disgusted with this book! I'm a mature teenager and understand making love and everything related to that, but this book had so many sexual references and scenes that I was disgusted! I was only on page 30 and had already read multiple sexual scenes! The writing style was decent and the characters seemed to be semi-original, but please, do we honestly need so many sex scenes? I'm not into reading bestiality or anything of that sort and I can understand a few sex scenes in this book, it's understandable. However, this was over the top. Several sexual scenes could be taken out and still get the message across. My favorite author, Stephen King, manages to have TASTEFUL sexual scenes in his book that get the message across without having to occur so often or be so descriptive. I will not be finishing this book, I can't stand to read it anymore as I've already flipped forward at random and found MORE sexual scenes. I do not recommend this book to anyone!

    my advice to any one is don't bother. I am sorry I wasted my money of buying this book. I will finish but just because I don't have another book to start.

    A magical, historical find!

    I am blown away with this book! Beautifully written, wonderfully descriptive! Wolfman meets Caesar! Borchardt brings a mystical and heartful wolfman trying to understand his human side and throws him into the life of a heroic Valkryie character like no other and tumbles them both onto the doorsteps of Rome's greatest (and not so great) men. I could smell, taste, see and feel this historical moment in such a magical way! On my way to buying all her books now! 5 Stars!

    Good werewolf scifi with a twist

    This is an entertaining electronic book and I'm not big on books. I really like the story of a wolf changing into a human. It switches up a very classic image of the werewolf. He first encounters a woman and wants to be more human and less like a wolf. Then after a while he makes a transformation into a human, but only near her. Then when the people are attacked by the Romans he changes to an eagle to locate the soldiers. He also changes back to a wolf to hide from other humans, hiding his secret in the process, using his knowledge of the area to save her. He changes to human form for her and goes into hiding when any other humans cross their path. She even teaches him how to act human. She taught him about marriage instead of how dominant female leads the pack. I found this book interesting and can¿t say anything about this book that I didn¿t like. The main character describes his life as wolf and human and from both points of views. What interested me the most is the detail involved in his thought process and how he stays true to his wolf nature through out. My belief is good books have to be well researched and the story must provide the detail to pull you into the story completely, in my opinion, Alice Borchardt has done that in 'Night of the Wolf'.

    Great Book!!

    It was harder to read than the Silver Wolf, but it was really worth it and I thought it was just as good as the first book. I recommend it even if you haven't yet read the Silver Wolf (which you should!)

    How can someone NOT like this book?!

    I for one found this book very coherent and well written. I've read it 7 times! I was shocked to see the bad reviews it was given, I found it as equally entertaining at the first one!

    Not what I expected but...

    This book was, I thought, a really terrific read, though it was not as good as The Silver Wolf. I really love how Alice Botchardt blends history with fantasy in both of them. But Night of the Wolf doesn't have the intensity that was a constant all throughout The Silver Wolf.I do reccomend reading, if not for enjoyment, but it does give a clearer background on Maeniel. It truly was a good book, and I really recommend it!!!

    Beautiful

    Awesome depiction of life in Rome. Though the plot was a little muddy and the transformation of Maenial was a little unclear, his attitude as a wolf gave insight to the humans of Rome.

    Better than the one before it

    I absolutely loved reading this book. I literally couldn't put it down. Alice Borchardt really outdid herself when she wrote this book. There's a lot of lust in it, and a lot of battling. Not only that, it has a bit of History in it, so I learned something along with enjoyment. Altogether, this book is the best!

    Long and drawnout

    I thought the book was good, but not as excellent as Silver Wolf. There was a lot of bouncing back and forth from scene to scene and it was easy to become lost in the story. If you have not read Silver Wolf I recommend that you do, it will help put this book into perspective.
