Bad Wolf

Bad Wolf Chronicles, Book 1

By: Tim McGregor

Narrated by: Bob Barton

Detective Lara Mendes's hard work finally pays off when she gets the chance to join the homicide detail. There's only one catch; she has to partner up with a cop no one wants to work with.

John Gallagher is a veteran homicide detective who loves stomping bad guys and hates partners. When the Lieutenant saddles him with this green kid named Mendes, his first reaction is to ditch her but a call comes in about a body on the river bank and the rotation says they're up.

What they find are human remains, mutilated and partially devoured. Their investigation reveals a killer stalking the city with a pack of vicious, feral dogs. And the suspect believes he is a werewolf.

But this is Portland, where crazy bastards outnumber normal ones ten to one. Except there's another catch. The crazy werewolf guy? He isn't crazy...

Good book

3 1/2 Stars
This was a pretty good book. I would've loved for there to have been more werewolf action, but the action I got was good. I thought it was interesting that a pack of dogs followed the wolf. I will be checking out the rest of the series.

What a rush !

Would you consider the audio edition of Bad Wolf to be better than the print version?

I have not read the book, but I am going to purchase the rest of the series. I prefer audio books because of eyesight issues, but I look forward to reading more of this one.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

Oh boy did it. The perfect combo of supernatural and horror, with a bit of teddy bear thrown in. The dogs were terrifying, and the wolf is straight out of your nightmares.

What three words best describe Bob Barton’s voice?

Sort of monotonous

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes, I tried, but couldn't. I could not get the story out of my head though. Hard to wait for what would happen next.

Any additional comments?

Even though I received this audio book free in exchange for writing a truthful review, I would have purchased it anyway. The author is an exceptional writer. Loved Laura and Galliger. He is the perfect bad cop/ teddy bear, she's the good cop/tough guy. Their work relationship was an interesting mix. I look forward to new adventures. And more edge of the seat thrillers from this author.

Very entertaining Wolf Pack Story

The Reader was amazing! Lived his voice and made a good story even better.
