Cherry, Nebraska, population 312, is just off the highway between the sticks and the boonies. It’s where Dave Rhodes and his friends have lived all their lives. They own businesses, raise families, pay taxes, deal with odd neighbors, and, once or twice a month - just like their fathers before them - transform into wolves.

It’s not a bad life, but when one of the group members goes astray, it sets in motion a series of events that will threaten to destroy the delicate balance that has kept Dave and his clan off the radar. Between a son getting ready for his first transformation - called The Scratch - a wife with sordid secrets, a new sheriff who knows nothing of the creatures in his midst, and a mysterious man in a bow tie with a shady agenda, the middle of nowhere is about to get very dangerous.

Wolves over vampires any day! Let me first say I was impressed by fantasticland and how the narrative was delivered. Hoping to see an adaption sometime in the future. My brother noticed you had a werewolf book as well and recommended it to me since I’ve been a fan of the genre since I was a kid. I had been recently let down by a few wolf stories before hand so I was hesitant on grabbing this one. I can assure you, Mike Bockoven does not disappoint with this one. Great story, great world building, and great characters that I actually get excited when they wolf out. The POV from one of em in action had me feeling like I was there with them. I’m hoping you get around to creating another one in this world. So much lore I wanted to explore there. I’ll be waiting

OOWWOOOOO!!! Can I have some more please 🙏🏽

I loved Fantastic Land and was unsure about a werewolf story - not easy to make it believable. However, it pulled me in and I was drawn into the characters. It was a great listen.

Pleasantly Surprised

Probably the WORST attempt at an Irish accent I’ve ever heard. More often sounded like a bad Native American, sometimes SOCAL surfer, sometimes British accent. Other than that a really fun and original werewolf story!

I enjoyed the narration and the story line. Nothing super surprising in the way the story unfolds but a fun listen all around.

The only reason, and I mean the only reason I’m giving this a four star on performance was because of the no-so-great Irish accent.
But the story was so engaging and the many of characters were well developed and multi-dimensional. Mike built a whole world in less than eight hours. I am dying for the sequel.

Really good story

Let me start by saying I have a real distaste for Zombie or Werewolf stories because they are usually so predictable. I was a huge fan of the author's other book Fantasticland. Pack was an incredible surprise. The character building and drama of their interactions spliced with comedy and just plain intelligent writing had me on the edge of my seat. The story usually had me laughing and I related to it on many levels. It is a beautiful work of art.

The narration was great and I felt like I was inside the story 90% of the time. Accents are tricky sometimes, espescially Irish.

Not Just Another Werewolf Story

Less depressing than Fantastic Land but just as engrossing. I wish it wasn't over ... sequel is clearly called for here. ("The Alpha Prime") I even wrote the author begging. Never done that before. This is a truly talented guy. Can't wait for his next.

I loved this book

Pack was a fun ride through a tight knit, small town of wolves. I enjoyed the dynamics within the pack, while learning along with them about this broader world of wolves. I hope more people come across this title, so that we learn more about Josie and what she is capable of. And, yes, the Irish accent was pretty terrible. But, the narrators take on Kenny made up for it. Give this one a listen.

More Than A Monster Book

This was not like his other novel "FantasticLand". I was very disappointed. It started great but then a couple hours in an Irishman walks into the story with a very strange accent, thankfully the author wrote what the"UK-Russian-Queens, NY" man was from. The narrator tried and seemed confident but is hard to listen to narrators that have 1 character contantly flip flopping into accents.

The story itself was seeming to teeter a lot and there were just too many banches on this tree. It's 'a coming of age novel with love, family, a couple murders, a foreign regiment, good guys and bad guys across the world and of course there is a long standing fued. Things get mentioned that sounds interesting, then gets dropped. In this small where a small percentage of the population even is aware of these werewolves, it's just a lot.

Had high hopes
