A sound werewolf tale sans extraneous sex

Thanks be for an honest werewolf tale set in the time of The Inquisition and full of horror and plot twists! The horror is endemic to the time, and not an artificial construct. The plot is engaging, smoothly presented, and delightfully twisty. A timeless presentation of the battle between Good, Evil, and idiots.
The narrator is beyond excellent! She might be Canadian, her French and English are so well said. Add that distinction to her pleasing, clear voice, and you are the winner (as are your ears).

Great listen!

Besides being a wonderful listen, the narrator had the best French accent of any American actor I've ever heard.

1450 Paris Love, Smallpox, and Werwolves

Michael Wallace's new book takes place in 1450 Paris. Where the Inquisition is still burning people at the stake and conducting other torturous acts. But as always people always seek out power. For one man and his friends the ability to shape shift from man to wolf and back is irresistible. Even if it damns their souls to hell.
Unfortunately an Italian Merchant and his brother along with a beautiful Widow of a French Duke stumble upon their plan and must fight for God, Love, and Life itself against this ungodly pack of demon dogs. 
The local clergy calling out the unholy think our Hero's are themselves heretics and wish to round them up and punish them. The battle between Good, Evil, and Uneducated Ignorance is as much a part of this epic tale as the Wolves themselves.

This audiobook is Narrated by Rosemary Benson. She is by far the best narrator of French based stories in the business. Her accents and use of tone and space as she performs brings every audiobook to life. She is one of my favorite audiobook artists. I listened to this book because of her and was pleased that I did. Wall Street Journal's Best Selling Author Michael Wallace wrote the perfect prose to showcase Rosemary's Brilliance. 
This is a great book to read by listening.

This book was a gift in return for an honest review.

Good Ole' fashion Werewolf Story

I loved this story. The story was set in Paris around the year of 1450.
There were no sexy werewolves trying to climb into bed with any humans to seduce them.

These werewolves are of the Devil, and this story runs true to how people believed in the 1450's. They are evil and have human cunning. Actually, kinda like the Catholic Church and it's clergy of that time. Which actually makes for a great story, as the normal lay person is caught in a world of how to be clever enough to defeat the werewolves, without having the church condemn you as a Witch, or Satan worshiper.

So, yes we have all read the old stories of the werewolf, but again this was a great story, and I truly enjoyed my listen.

Another great novel from Michael Wallace

The Wolves of Paris is a very engaging story. The historical accuracy of the descriptions of life in fifteenth century Paris really lend to the authenticity of the novel.The characters are very engaging. It makes it difficult to hit pause and quit listening.

A definitely thumbs up for anyone looking for an enjoyable story!
