Review by: Alexis Hunter on Sep. 13, 2011 : star star star star star
There wasn't one story in this anthology that I did not absolutely love. I read the entire thing over the course of one weekend - flipping 'pages' on my ipod kindle app whenever I could get the chance.

In my opinion, Misanthrope Press avoided one of the pitfalls of anthology publishing which many other publishers fall right into. I've read many an themed anthology where every story feels achingly familiar to the last, until each character becomes in the mind just a blend of the other. Those anthologies are hard to read through. Children of the Moon, I promise, is nothing like that.

Each story involves werewolves, of course. But each tale is unique. Each character stands out, and there's quite a few twist endings to make you sit back and grin. What each story has in common is its rich detail, believable characters and clever twists on what can sometimes be a tired theme.

After reading Children of the Moon, I find myself very impressed with the selection of authors, as well as with Misanthrope Press itself. Without a doubt I will be waiting and watching for their next published anthology - and I would recommend this and any work published by Misanthrope to anyone.
