Opis

Werewolf and vampire stories are supposed to be gothic, gory, steamy, romantic, emotional, angst-driven bloodfests with plenty of bang and fang, right? Maybe, but WereWoof takes a less trodden path, shining the bright light of comedy on these dark creatures. Erin is two thirds vampire, meaning one more bite will turn her entirely Undead. She's not exactly a fan of this, though her friend Trug and his buddies Nevin and Slim are fascinated by her vampire powers - especially that of resistance to acne. Meanwhile, vampires are trying to raise their image in the community, asking for civil rights (little things like the right not to get staked) and offering such services as free and painless executions for death row inmates, and assistance to physicians in certain surgical procedures. But they are still intent on bringing Erin into their vampire coven. Erin, her family and smart-talking bat-Familiar are hunting the vampires to get them before the pointy tooth villains can complete her conversion. Unfortunately, the vampires get to her first, and now they've taken her to their lair for the final bite. Trug and his friends strike an uneasy truce with a pack of werewolves to find the vampires and save Erin, but everything unravels when the werewolves betray them, Nevin and Trug are converted into were-dogs and their bat goes missing. Now the two were-dogs have to use their newfound powers of Kibbles and Bits to battle the turncoat werewolves and bloodsucking demons without the benefit of opposable thumbs. WereWoof takes the genre away from romantic will-he-bite-me-or-kiss me, giving both boys and girls a fun read, proving along the way that the funny bone can be stronger than the fang. from the author of Fang Face and The Adventures of Guy Here's what they said about Fang Face: "I loved this book, fangs and all."
