St. Martin’s Moon by Marc Vun Kannon…

In space, no one can hear you scream…and the Moon is haunted.

Joseph Marquand didn’t want to go back, he really didn’t, but duty called, curiosity beckoned, and besides, it’s not like his nights could get any worse. A werewolf attack on the Moon itself was something of a novelty, especially for Earth’s greatest werewolf hunter, and if he could lay a few of his own unquiet ghosts, specifically Cynthia’s ghost, to rest at the same time.

The people of Coventry Base definitely didn’t want him there. Except for Candace, who was definitely in the minority. The citizens had taken shelter there for a reason, and they were more afraid of the werewolf hunter than they would ever be of a werewolf. Then the nightmares began, and the wolves of Coventry Base found that they were haunted by far more than just their curse. They were being haunted by Marquand’s curse as well. The werewolf hunter had become the werewolves’ only hope for salvation, but Marquand’s only hope for salvation was in one woman with no hope, and another who didn’t even know she existed. …but the werewolves don’t know that!

St. Martin’s Moon  by Marc Vun Kannon is a fast paced action packed tale that kept this reader on the edge of her seat. A point comes within the story where I am sure that Joseph Marquand is not truly haunted, but suffering from some sort of lunacy. (Get it? Moon/Luna…lunacy?) The isolation and exile of the Coventry Base was tangible.  I was continually kept guessing as I tried to figure out what the mysterious observers are doing and why. Also, I began to question some of the myths and theories I’ve ever heard in association with werewolves.   I felt an unnerving sense of isolation as I read the story, and began to feel that Coventry Base was a place of exile and that no one was safe in space.

Oh and there are WEREWOLVES! I know that I should go into a bit of detail about the werewolves, but there was such a uniqueness to them that I really don’t feel right trying to discuss them without giving too much away.

Overall, an exciting and unique tale that I would most definitely suggest lovers of werewolves add to their bookshelves.
