Book Cover

In the same vein as the Zombie Survival Guide, the Vampire Survival Guide and How to Survive in a Horror Movie comes a new humorous self-help book: The Werewolf’s Guide to Life.  Written by Ritch Duncan and Bob Powers, this book takes a different tack from the others mentioned as instead of telling you how to fight against the titled monsters, this one teaches you how to deal and live with lycanthropy.

From what to expect with your first shape changing to how to better increase your odds of survival, the book covers everything the emerging werewolf could possibly ask about.  You’ll learn how to set up a safe room to make sure that others aren’t harmed when the moon is full, what kinds of jobs are ideal for the newly furry, what to expect in the romance department, and what types of people to avoid.  Throughout the book, there are little sidebars called "Famous Lycs Through History" describing several historical figures who became werewolves.  There are also special warnings about certain holidays to avoid in the future, as the full moon will fall on those days.

All in all, the book was a really good read.  It’s funny, informative, and definitely worth a perusal if you’re interested in the subject at all.  I give it 5 out of 5.  That’s all for this session.  Tune in next time when I bring you a new short film with Robert Pattinson and Julian Sands, then we’re going to move for the lower end of the scale for the first time in the site’s history (at least, the first time for me).  Take care, everyone, and this is Red Hawk signing out!
