Publisher Description

Randi Wade is a survivor. She followed in the footsteps of her father, became a cop, and now is working the P.I. trade. But her past still haunts her. And the vicious animal attacks that took her father's life have sprung up anew, claiming victims once again in this sleepy town. George R.R. Martin's unique creative voice spins a modern-day classic horror tale of murder, werewolves, and bladed demons. This audiobook is a suspenseful master tale dripping with blood and revenge.

"I bought the book mostly for Stephen King's stories (which, it turns out, I had already read 2 of the 3) but ended up liking George R. R. Martin's "The Skin Trade" story the most. "

    " 4 Stars for the collection. Breaking that down by author, I'd rate them this way: Dan Simmons - 4 1/2, Stephen King 3 1/2, George R. R. Martin - 5 "

    " This gets five stars just for George R.R. Martin's werewolf novella. Everything else is just tasty frosting. "

    " This book has possibly the greatest werewolf story ever written, if it was just that story it would get five stars, but let down by some of the other content. "

    " Loved this book to death, and my biggest surprise upon reading it years and years ago? The Martin and Simmons stories stole the show from the tales by King. "

    " A mixed author collection that includes 3 stories by King which is of course why I picked it up. Enjoyed the whole book though. Stories also by Dan Simmons and George Martin. "

    " I only like the final story called "Skin Trade" by George R.R. Martin. The rest of the book isn't worth reading. Slow stories that go nowhere. "
