HUNTERS MOON introduces us to Tony, our narrator and a hit man for the Mafia. A few months ago, one of Tony's jobs went very wrong-the mark spotted him, attacked him, and ripped out his throat. He should have died, but instead he woke up furry, and now, with every full moon, he changes into a wolf. Months later Tony has a bad feeling that the wolf-s nses are encroaching on his human life, and this is confirmed when he meets a new freelance client and feels an immediate attraction to her, something that never happened when he was fully human. But there's a bigger problem aside from the professional implications, and the fact that his wolf half wants him to mate with her: she wants to hire him to kill her. He manages to convince her to wait a year, to deal with her problems head on, but tries-and fails-to avoid becoming entangled with her. As he's drawn further into her life and her problems, the wolf inside of him clamors to be let out-and he realizes he's not the only one in the Midwest whose life is ruled by the moon...

Review
An amazing, cutting edge paranormal adventure. Gritty, fast-paced and sexy. It's earned a spot on my keeper shelf. -- Tess Mallory, best selling fantasy author, June 20, 2004
I read the book in one sitting. This book has some twists in the werewolf's tail that were very cool. -- Laurell K. Hamilton, NYTimes Best selling author, March 13, 2003
If werewolf stories are your favorite, then you have to pick this one up. You won't be disappointed. -- The Romance Studio, August 9, 2004
Like watching a good movie, all I needed was popcorn. I would queue outside a bookstore to get a copy. -- Roundtable Reviews, September 6, 2004

From the Author
Tony Giodone is an attack victim, turned Sazi against his will. Since recovering from his injuries, he's been forced to try to understand his new nature and to fight to fit it into his life. People often ask authors: where do you come up with these ideas? Usually we start with a question: What if? What would happen if werewolves existed? Would modern humans be tolerant of them? Would shapeshifters have to hide what they are in order to survive? We think so. Rules would have to be strict. The secret would have to be clouded in smoke, hidden in shadow and wrapped in an enigma. Punishment would have to be harsh, because discovery would bring the very real risk of slaughter. In HUNTER'S MOON, we've tried to create characters that the readers can empathize and identify with, that blend in with current reality.

Tony Giodone is a hitman for the mafia and everyone else who can pay for his services. He's good at his job. He's become even better since he turned werewolf after a job that didn't go quite as expected. But now he gets an unusual case: Sue Quentin wants him to kill her. Thanks to her awful family and the fact that she's too nice to say no to them, she suffers from severe depression. But Tony feels attracted to her and becomes her bodyguard and lover instead of killing her. As they get closer, she has to face her weaknesses and her issues with Tony's job. And he has to find ways to deal not only with the mafia and the police, but also with his werewolf instincts that get stronger and stronger...
This book is exciting, funny, full of action and with a great leading character. It's also the beginning of a series about shapeshifters, the Sazi. It has already been continued with "Moon's web", in which the Sazi and their culture play a larger role. This is just the beginning of a series that promises to be complex and interesting. So if you like early Laurell K. Hamilton or Lynn Viehl's Darkyn-series, this is just the book for you.

The beginning of the book started a bit like erotic fiction and not much else. When it got into the story though it got a lot better. The end was good and not predictable. It brings a new point of view to were-animals of all kinds. And I like the fact that's its told from the man's point of view which is different. Especially as the female point gets across in a very clever way.

on the front cover is a review from Laurell K Hamilton who says that she read the book in one sitting. So did i and i loved it. Tony and Sue are fabulous characters and i cant wait to read more in this series. i will say though that the book is written in a first person style and whilst i have read many first person books they are normally from a female point of view. this book is written from Tony's view point which took me a bit to get my head round but once i did i really enjoyed it.
Hunter's Moon was a refreshing change to the normal paranormal books i read.
its well work reading

Howling fun
A well written fantasy/horror/romance novel. Somewhat reminiscent of Kelley Armstrong but nevertheless the author brings a touch of wit and style to this particular genre. Read more

Promising Beginning but a Little Unfocused
This is so-so in terms of the genre, it has some interesting points namely that it's a quirky romance from the male point of view. Read more
