Lycanthropes . . . Shapechangers . . .Loups-agrous . . . Werewolves . . .
Men and women who hide beneath the face of the Beast, and the Beasts who kill with the tortured soul
of Man. Tragic creatures condemned through no fault of their own to change during the phases of the
full moon and destroy the ones they love. The Mammoth Book of Werewolves brings together twenty-three
tales of terror and transformation which will make you howl with delight, from classic pulp novellas
like Manly Wade Wellman's 'The Hairy Ones Shall Dance' and 'The Whisperers' by Hugh B. Cave, to such
modern masterpieces as David Case's 'The Cell', Clive Barker's 'Twilight at the Towers' and the
award-winning 'Boobs' by Suzy McKee Charnas. Also collected together for the first time are memorable
stories by such contemporary masters as Ramsey Campbell, Basil Copper, R. Chetwynd-Hayes, Karl
Edward Wagner, Dennis Etchison, Les Daniels, Stephen Laws and Scott Bradfield, and original
fiction from Graham Masterton, Michael Marshall Smith, Mark Morris, Peter Tremayne, Roberta
Lannes, Nicholas Royle, Adrian Cole, David Sutton, Brian Mooney, and a major new novella by
Kim Newman. So when the wolfbane blooms and the moon is full and bright, get your silver
bullets ready as the sign of the pentagram reveals the Beast that lurks within us all . . .

Reviews
"The 24 stories and novellas within make an excellent case for the werewolf's versatility . . . this collection is well written and well balanced in regards to atmosphere versus visceral content. Recommended to those who don't already own the previous edition."
—Monica S. Kuebler
RUE MORGUE, ISSUE #97, January/February 2010
"It seems that it is harder to come up with an original slant on the werewolf than the vampire, but Stephen Jones has shown that there's plenty around if you look."
—Andy Sawyer
ALL HALLOWS #7, October 1994
"Nary a month seems to pass without a horror anthology from editor Stephen Jones, who now brings us The Mammoth Book of Werewolves. Thankfully, his discerning taste ensures a quality assortment of lycanthropic yarns."
—Christopher Fowler
TIME OUT August 3-10, 1994
