Brenner is not a werewolf... He is the result of a secret US Army experiment. The creation of a government controlled Super Soldier. And no one asked if he wanted to take part. So, he escaped. And for the last fifty years has been living in the backroads and the small unknown towns of America. Never aging. Searching for a cure. At the same time avoiding the dark ops experts who are looking for him. But just because he can become a seven foot, four hundred pound killing machine, it doesn't mean that Brenner is bad. In fact, he sticks to a strict code. And like the High Plains drifters of old, anyone who crosses the Wolfman's code is sure to suffer. They took his humanity ... and now it's time for payback.

Why We Fight is a collection of essays written in the midst of the largest resurgence of the far-right in fifty years, and the explosion of antifascist, antiracist, and revolutionary organizing that has risen to fight it. The essays unpack the moment we live in, confronting the apocalyptic feelings brought on by nationalism, climate collapse, and the crisis of capitalism, but also delivering the clear message that a new world is possible through the struggles communities are leveraging today. Burley reminds us what we're fighting for not simply what we're fighting against.

This volume investigates the reception of a small historical fact with wide-ranging social, cultural and imaginative consequences. Inspired by Leif Eiriksson’s visit to Vinland in about the year 1000, novels, poetry, history, politics, arts and crafts, comics, films and video games have all come to reflect rising interest in the medieval Norse and their North American presence. Uniquely in reception studies, From Iceland to the Americas approaches this dynamic between Nordic history and its reception by bringing together international authorities on mythology, language, film and cultural studies, as well as on the literature that has dominated critical reception. Collectively, the chapters not only explore the connections among medieval Iceland and the modern Americas, but also probe why medieval contact has become a modern cultural touchstone.

THE LAST EARTHLING is book #1 in THE AGE OF THE WEREWOLVES saga. Even the last person on Earth has a destiny…. The Near Future: Eden Summers, a 16 year old girl with a special gift, is the unlikely last survivor of two world-ending calamities. The first was Wildfire, a deadly super-plague that wiped out all but a few hundred of mankind in two horrible weeks. The second was the massacre of the Foundation, an elite group of scientist survivors led by her father, by a mythical race of werewolves called The Caretakers. Now Eden, the last of the survivors, is alone. She misses her old life, especially Luke, her handsome first love and best friend, who she never had a chance to say goodbye to. The Caretakers are looking to be the new rulers of earth and they are coming for her, the last human left on the planet--and the last obstacle to their new Age of The Werewolves. Eden has some very unique friends: at her side are John, Paul, George, and Ringo, four intelligent bio-enhanced dogs entrusted to her protection by her brilliant father. And she soon discovers that although she is the last of her kind, that kind is not human. She is an Earthling, the last of an ancient race that has waged a secret war with the werewolves for eons. A race of beings that have unique powers and a special relationship with Earth’s animals. And as the last of her kind at the end of her world, she has been given a special destiny. A destiny to help forge a new one. And so begins Eden's epic quest as the Last Earthling. A quest to end the werewolves’ reign and bring harmony for all creatures of this brave new world. Book #2 in the series will be published soon.

In a moonlit graveyard somewhere in southern Italy, a soldier removes his clothes in readiness to transform himself into a wolf. He depends upon the clothes to recover his human shape, and so he magically turns them to stone, but his secret is revealed when, back in human form, he is seen to carry a wound identical to that recently dealt to a marauding wolf. In Arcadia a man named Damarchus accidentally tastes the flesh of a human sacrifice and is transformed into a wolf for nine years. At Temesa Polites is stoned to death for raping a local girl, only to return to terrorize the people of the city in the form of a demon in a wolfskin. Tales of the werewolf are by now well established as a rich sub-strand of the popular horror genre; less widely known is just how far back in time their provenance lies. These are just some of the werewolf tales that survive from the Graeco-Roman world, and this is the first book in any language to be devoted to their study. It shows how in antiquity werewolves thrived in a story-world shared by witches, ghosts, demons, and soul-flyers, and argues for the primary role of story-telling-as opposed to rites of passage-in the ancient world's general conceptualization of the werewolf. It also seeks to demonstrate how the comparison of equally intriguing medieval tales can be used to fill in gaps in our knowledge of werewolf stories in the ancient world, thereby shedding new light on the origins of the modern phenomenon. All ancient texts bearing upon the subject have been integrated into the discussion in new English translations, so that the book provides not only an accessible overview for a broad readership of all levels of familiarity with ancient languages, but also a comprehensive sourcebook for the ancient werewolf for the purposes of research and study.
