Today's review is on Wolves Among Men by Penlelope Sweet
Wolves
Among Men is a fast-paced adventure that has the potential for being a
really good book. With a decent story line and the beautiful flow of
the authors voice, it's a shame that it's riddled with editing mistakes.
Ethan Harlow and his sister Cordillia are trying to live their
lives the best that they can after the death of their parents. Ethan
takes responsibility for his baby sister and would do anything to
protect her and keep her safe. After all, all they have is each other
now. It's funny though, how everything can change in one moment. How a
normal life can turn to chaos. And that's exactly what happens.
One
evening, Ethan is attacked and left for dead only to be "rescued" by a
strange and beautiful woman. But after waking up in the ICU, Ethan
notices some strange changes in himself. Unknowingly, Ethan has become a
Werewolf.
What follows is a story of love, loss, and friendship
amongst a war. A war that Ethan has unwittingly started by breaking a
treaty between wolves. Wolves that protect humans, and wolves that eat
humans. Now he'll need the help of all of his new friends and the woman
who changed him to end it.
I really wanted this book to be better
than it actually is. I could feel for the characters as I was pulled
into the story. I didn't want to put the book down. I had to see what
was going to happen. Sadly however, there are just so many editing
mistakes.
Proper punctuation is missing, wrong words are used,
quotes where they shouldn't be. It seems like the book didn't even go
through editing. Readers deserve a bit better than that no matter how
much the book costs.
