My new book is "The Best Werewolf Short Stories 1800-1849: A Classic Werewolf Anthology." A transformation of the werewolf in literature made its greatest strides in the first half of the 19th century when the monster jumped from poetry to the short story. It happened when this shorter form of literature was morphing into darker shapes. Read today and enjoy!
