A remarkable story. You must read the two books to get the full impact. Delightful, hard to put down.

I could not put it down. This is classic Anne Rice doing what she does best!

Enjoyed the vampire chronicles, and parts of this book I did really enjoy. But, there are some very slow bits and many times I found myself skimming the pages looking for the plot to advance. Characters are a bit fanciful.

Lacking any sort of a climax or real excitement.

The book was a slow starter. Midway through it became interesting and by the end you wanted the story of Margon to continue. I downloaded the next book right away.

Anne Rice never disappoints! I couldn't put it down!

Loved it, great book and looking forward to the second of this series

Wonderful summer read!

Just like the vampire series Anne Rice changed the game on werewolves. Beautiful and amazing creatures. Great book.

If you are a dedicated AR fan, then perhaps this book will hold some appeal to you. If you are the kind who thought her best works were those in the vampire and Mayfair witches series, then this book will be a complete letdown. I personally believe her publisher promulgated this drivel only because she has a following. If a new writer were to have written The Wolf Gift, then s/he would still be searching for a publishing house. There's no plot, the characters are not well developed -and not likable. There's no character that is worth rooting for: everyone is uber wealthy (who in this economic climate wants to read a novel about the auspicious turn of events in the life of a trust fund baby?) and the few trials the protagonist undertakes are surmounted with ease and a Dickensonian happy ending. The good vs evil theme is forcibly inculcated into the material and is cliche. The science and technology Anne Rice adds into her story still doesn't give the tale a "modern" edge. Her main character's name is Reuben Golding, a title that conjures up 70 year-old accountants or your great aunt Ethel's hard of hearing husband; not some hot 23 year-old boy who drives a Porsche and shags three of the female characters in the book. Clearly AR is out of touch with the times, and her readers. Do yourself a service and save your time and money.
