Brief Synopsis: (Taken from Goodreads) While Dr. Warthrop is attempting to disprove that Homo vampiris, the vampire, could exist, his former fiancée asks him to rescue her husband, who has been captured by a Wendigo—a creature that starves even as it gorges itself on human flesh. Although Dr. Warthrop considers the Wendigo to be fictitious, he relents and performs the rescue—and then sees the man transform into a Wendigo. Can the doctor and Will Henry hunt down the ultimate predator, who, like the legendary vampire, is neither living nor dead, and whose hunger for human flesh is never satisfied? This second book in The Monstrumologist series explores the line between myth and reality, love and hate, genius and madness.
My Review:
My Review:
I give this book a 5 out of 5.
I loved this sequel. The first book in this series was excellent, but this one might actually have been better. Dr. Warthrop is convinced that his best friend is not a monster but is delusional. Others, including his former mentor, are convinced that he is becoming a Wendigo. The book takes us to the wilds of Canada and then to the slums of New York City. Will Henry learns a lot about his master and even about himself.
The author has done a fabulous job with this series, and I'm anxious to read book three: The Isle of Blood.
You can purchase The Curse of the Wendigo through Amazon in hard copy or Kindle format.
