There's always someone's father, someone's mother, someone's wife, someone's son. This is the problem with killing and eating people. One of the problems.

Reviews

* The Last Werewolf is written with such scandalous ferocity and such grizzly humour it feels like the literary equivalent of howling at the moon. Not since Lon Chaney and John Landis has lycanthropy been such a blast, and Glen Duncan offers more danger, gristle and lunatic brilliance per sentence than any writer I can think of. -- Matt Haig * A magnificent novel. A brutal, indignant, lunatic howl. A sexy, blood-spattered page-turner, beautifully crafted and full of genuine suspense, that tears the thorax out of the horror genre to create something that stands rapturous and majestic and entirely on its own. -- Nick Cave * A sharp, sometimes savage observer of the human condition, whose talents are as many as the legions of Hell. (On I, Lucifer) -- Matthew Baylis * Charming and sexy and very very funny ... Glen Duncan knows way too much, and says it far too well. I fear for his soul. (On I, Lucifer) -- Stella Duffy * One of the hottest literary properties of the new century. (On I, Lucifer) Independent on Sunday
