Product Description

Teenage werewolf Kalix MacRinnalch is pursued through the

prepares for war.

Lonely Werewolf Girl is an expansive tale of werewolves in the modern
world. The MacRinnalch family contains elegant werewolves, troubled teenage
werewolves, friendly werewolves, homicidal werewolves, fashion designers,
warriors, punks, cross-dressers, musicians - an entire Clan of Werewolves,
involved in conflict from the Scottish Highlands to London, and several
dimensions beyond

5.0 out of 5 stars LOVE IT, 17 Jun 2007
A brilliant return for the undisputed master of urban fantasy, Martin Millar.

This is Buffy for werewolves, excelling in humour, humanity, romance and action.

The mix of fantasy and mundane is masterfully blended to bring you a tale so close to, yet so far from, any reality you know.

Great out-loud laughs, dramatic fights, loud music, cable tv, fantastic plotting and skillful pacing, a heady mix of characters (human, werewolf and fire elemental) all race apace throughout.

The Scottish werewolf clans clash cultures with the low gothic and high fashion of London.

Kalix, the eponymous Lonely Werewolf Girl, is the best anti-heroine since Elfish of "Dreams Of Sex And Stage Diving".

Buy and enjoy.

Then demand a reprint of his entire back catalogue.

You'll never be the same again.

5.0 out of 5 stars From Cover to Cover, 14 Jun 2007
By Anj (Peterborough, UK) - See all my reviews
This book made me laugh out loud. It has fantastic yet believable characters who leap out of the book, into your mind leaving you with a sense of wanting more and more and more when you reach the end.

Buy it now, skip work and stock up with food and drink, switch off your phone and enter this fabulous world. Then read Good Fairies of New York and everything else ever written by Martin Millar.

5.0 out of 5 stars Werewolves + fashion + scotch = a winner, 20 Jun 2007
By Michael Pusateri (South Pasadena, CA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This novel is about the royal family of werewolves that live in Scotland and England. From what I can tell, it exists in the same universe as the Good Fairies, but the fairies don't play much of a role in this story.

The author, Martin Millar, finds a way to weave rock 'n' roll and Scotch whisky into a story about werewolves and their intrigues.

The magic behind the werewolves is sensible and works to set some limitations, unlike other fantasy novels where nothing is plausible or consistent. The influence of the Moon and silver are all discussed to make a werewolf fan happy. You can imagine these werewolves living among us in the modern day.

While centering the main theme of the control of the werewolf clans, Millar touches on all sorts of other themes from couture fashion to teenage angst to multi-dimension merchants. He does a great job of moving back and forth from humor to serious events, never allowing the reader to get quite comfortable with guessing what's coming next.

I don't want to give away spoilers, but I will say that I respect the author's decision not to tie up every loose end in a nice little bow. While several major plot points are resolved, man of the other threads are left open for interpretation by the reader, and if we are lucky, a future novel. I blew through the book in two days and sincerely hope this is not the last we've heard of young Kalix MacRinnalch.

If you like your fantasy fiction with a bit of humor, you should by a copy of Lonely Werewolf Girl now.
