Story
Looking back with wiser eyes now, my family and I concluded that the events leading up to my transformation started during the summer I turned nine. But the day we realized there was a problem - and there was no turning back - was a week before I started my senior year at Junction City High. That was the day the fangs and claws appeared, and the monster inside me emerged. When mutilated corpses appeared near a pile of brush down by Caney Creek, everything changed.

Anna never knew werewolves existed until the night she survived a violent attack…and became one herself. After three years at the bottom of the pack, she’d learned to keep her head down and never, ever trust dominant males. But Anna is that rarest kind of werewolf: an Omega. And one of the most powerful werewolves in the country will recognize her value as a pack member—and as his mate.

Story
Some of the parchment pages were the color of cream, thick and substantial, made to last many, many lifetimes. Other pages were thin and desiccated, positively yellow from age, and crackled alarmingly as Van Richten turned them over. There were no ornate illuminations, no fussy borders, only lines of plain text in hard black ink. The flowing handwriting was a bit difficult to follow at first; the writer's style of calligraphy had not been in common use for 300 years. No table of contents, but from the dates it looked to be some kind of history.

1450 Paris Love, Smallpox, and Werwolves
Michael Wallace's new book takes place in 1450 Paris. Where the Inquisition is still burning people at the stake and conducting other torturous acts. But as always people always seek out power. For one man and his friends the ability to shape shift from man to wolf and back is irresistible. Even if it damns their souls to hell.
Unfortunately an Italian Merchant and his brother along with a beautiful Widow of a French Duke stumble upon their plan and must fight for God, Love, and Life itself against this ungodly pack of demon dogs.
The local clergy calling out the unholy think our Hero's are themselves heretics and wish to round them up and punish them. The battle between Good, Evil, and Uneducated Ignorance is as much a part of this epic tale as the Wolves themselves.
This audiobook is Narrated by Rosemary Benson. She is by far the best narrator of French based stories in the business. Her accents and use of tone and space as she performs brings every audiobook to life. She is one of my favorite audiobook artists. I listened to this book because of her and was pleased that I did. Wall Street Journal's Best Selling Author Michael Wallace wrote the perfect prose to showcase Rosemary's Brilliance.
This is a great book to read by listening.
This book was a gift in return for an honest review.

A sound werewolf tale sans extraneous sex
Thanks be for an honest werewolf tale set in the time of The Inquisition and full of horror and plot twists! The horror is endemic to the time, and not an artificial construct. The plot is engaging, smoothly presented, and delightfully twisty. A timeless presentation of the battle between Good, Evil, and idiots.
The narrator is beyond excellent! She might be Canadian, her French and English are so well said. Add that distinction to her pleasing, clear voice, and you are the winner (as are your ears).

Good Ole' fashion Werewolf Story
I loved this story. The story was set in Paris around the year of 1450.
There were no sexy werewolves trying to climb into bed with any humans to seduce them.
These werewolves are of the Devil, and this story runs true to how people believed in the 1450's. They are evil and have human cunning. Actually, kinda like the Catholic Church and it's clergy of that time. Which actually makes for a great story, as the normal lay person is caught in a world of how to be clever enough to defeat the werewolves, without having the church condemn you as a Witch, or Satan worshiper.
So, yes we have all read the old stories of the werewolf, but again this was a great story, and I truly enjoyed my listen.

Another great novel from Michael Wallace
The Wolves of Paris is a very engaging story. The historical accuracy of the descriptions of life in fifteenth century Paris really lend to the authenticity of the novel.The characters are very engaging. It makes it difficult to hit pause and quit listening.
A definitely thumbs up for anyone looking for an enjoyable story!

Any additional comments?
I was pleasantly surprised listening to this book. I listen to audio books as I travel for work, and there were several times I sat in my car outside a client's office for a few minutes to hear what happened next in the book. Very well written, and kept my attention throughout. Highly recommended.

Fascinating
The Wolves of Paris was an outstanding, well written story with an enchanting plot and wonderful setting in 15th century Paris during the werewolf-witch trials. This was a wonderful piece of folklore history brought to present day through likeable and despicable characters, a skilled writer and fabulous voice actor.
Rosemary Benson did an amazing job voicing this audiobook. I highly recommend listening to this one.
I received this audiobook foc in exchange for an unbiased review.

The wolves of Paris
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Even if you are not a fan of wolves and monsters, which I am not, this is a must audiobook The Wolves of Paris is not a typical werewolf versus hero tale. It is written with class, and giving life to colorful characters with true to life emotions, behavior, situations and traditions. The narrator added to the different emotions.

Any additional comments?
It was an interesting and more original werewolf tail than I have seen recently. I enjoyed it. It kept my interest enough to finish it, but it was rather predictable for the most part. Overall, a good listen. The narrator was very good!

Werewolves, the Catholic Church, Paris, nobles, and romance.
Two young noblemen from Florence Italy are heading to Paris for business. On the way they are drawn into a werewolf vs human battle. Lorenzo and Marco help Lucressia, a young woman whose husband has become a werewolf. Lots of danger, fighting, traveling, betrayal and a bit of romance. Not bad but not great.
