It is 1981 in Buffalo, New York, and an angry, embittered young teen known and hated by his peers as Mike Nero is about to acquire a horrific tool of revenge -- he is about to be granted the power to transform at will into a werewolf from a most unexpected source. This novella begins his continuing saga, as he is compelled by combinations of choice and circumstance to use his newfound power to become everything from a seeker of personal vengeance to a reluctant anti-hero to oppose various threats that come his way and may present an even bigger menace to the Queen City than he is.This is his origin story, where he begins the long journey that will ultimately culminate in his becoming the lycanthropic monster hunter and champion code-named Beowolf you will see in various upcoming publications by Wild Hunt Press (hint: look out for BOOGEY KNIGHTS Vol. 1 and MANSION OF THE MACABRE Vol. 1, to name two!). However, the road that brings him there will be a difficult one filled with horror, tragedy, trauma, and triumph along the way, and it all started here! In his first exploit, you see Nero's origin as he seeks bloody revenge on those who had tormented him in the past, and also finds himself forced to use the power of the werewolf against the threat of the monstrous canine known as the Jack Dog and the vicious pack of feral dogs under his control that seek to become nothing less than the alpha predator of the Queen City, feeding on humans and targeting Nero, a newly created werewolf, as a rival to be eliminated. Can the young Nero prevail against the Jack Dog and his brutal pack even with the power of the werewolf at his beck and call, and while he is still just learning how the power works? And does he even want to, considering his own hatred of the human species?Rated Ex (Explicit) for graphic violence, strong language, and intense themes.
