Two thugs. One innocent woman. And one VICIOUS frickin' werewolf.

Meet George and Lou, thugs for hire. The kind of intimidating-yet-friendly guys who will break your thumbs, but be polite about it. Their latest assignment is to drive across Florida to deliver some precious cargo to a crime lord. The cargo: a man in a cage. Though Ivan seems perfectly human, they’re warned that he is, in fact, a bloodthirsty werewolf.

George and Lou don’t believe in the supernatural, but even if they did, it’s daytime and tonight isn’t the full moon. Their instructions are straightforward: Do not open the cage. Do not reach into the cage. Do not throw anything into the cage. And they don't.

Unfortunately, Ivan doesn’t play by the usual werewolf rules, and the thugs find themselves suddenly responsible for a ferocious escaped beast. One who can transform at will. One who enjoys killing in human form as much as he enjoys killing as a monster. If George and Lou want to save their careers, dozens of people, and their own lives, they need to recapture him. Because Ivan the werewolf is in the mood for a murder spree…

From Jeff Strand, the four-time Bram Stoker Award nominated author of PRESSURE, comes a novel of action-packed, blood-soaked werewolf terror!

Jeff Strand's bio was funnier when he talked about losing the Bram Stoker Award four times, but he's now a Bram Stoker Award WINNER!

His novels are usually classified as horror, but they're really all over the place, almost always with a great big dose of humor. He's written five young adult novels that all fall into the "really goofy comedy" category.

Several of his books are in development as motion pictures, and he's mostly not allowed to blab any details, which he finds MADDENING.

He currently lives in sunny, warm Duluth, Minnesota.

Fantastic Werewolf Story
5 Stars
Fantastic Werewolf Story
Introducing George and Lou, large bone breaking men who do odd jobs that most folk would find distasteful and many would see as illegal. They aren't your average knuckle draggers though. These are a couple of philosophical men who thrive on debate and witty conversation. Their jobs normally go pretty smoothly. Their latest job seems to be even easier than usual - transport a caged punk across Florida to a client. Don't feed him, don't let him out of the cage, don't let him provoke you into going near the cage - basically ignore the guy and get him to the client. Seems easy. It's funny how sometimes the easiest jobs turn out the be the most difficult...The thugs from this story reminded me a lot of the two mobsters from Pulp Fiction - without the enormous amount of foul language. Their banter is sure to pull at least one laugh from the reader, but underneath is some hardcore seriousness. They are a couple of tough, smart men put into an impossible situation and though they often screw up it's not any sort of screw ups that you could fault them for - it's stupid plans that I might have come up with myself if put in the same situation. The bad guy is bad. Pure evil and the reader will soon learn to hate him like few villains have ever been hated. This is a book that I couldn't hardly put down and I would highly recommend it to anyone who likes paranormal, werewolves, adventure, or just a hardcore story with tons of excitement.

5.0 out of 5 stars Three Cheers For The Bad Guys!!!

It's official. Jeff Strand has replaced Edward Lee on my list of favorite authors. Not to compare the two since they both have very different writing styles but I needed to find a replacement and Mr. Strand is it.

I fell in love with George and Lou and kept my fingers crossed as they battled Ivan - the thought of losing either of them made me sick to my stomach. The witty verbal exchanges between these two had me laughing out loud several times. There couldn't be a pair of more endearing "bad guys".

Ivan was just...evil. It's one thing to kill with a motive but to kill just for the sake of killing? Well, that's not very nice. And he takes the term "cocky smart @ss" to a whole new level. Which makes Ivan the perfect villain.

I gave this book four and a half tubs instead of five because I found myself tiring of the chase towards the end of the book. I was just wanting it to be over. I don't blame this on the author one bit. As a child, I literally HATED the RoadRunner and Coyote cartoons because the Coyote could never get one up on RoadRunner and for once I just wanted to see the Coyote sitting somewhere with roasted RoadRunner on a silver platter in front of him! What was the point of making me watch that stupid cartoon for all those years and he never even gets the bird?! ARE YOU INTENTIONALLY MESSING WITH MY EMOTIONS?!!! Suffice it to say, I have banned this particular cartoon from my home.

The ending was one of the best I've read. No jaw-dropping moment, no secret twist revealed - it was just....coooool. *smile

All in all, Wolf Hunt was a great read and I look forward to reading many more titles by this talented author.

Wolf Hunt, is without a doubt, the coolest werewolf story ever.

George and Lou are two thugs hired to deliver a werewolf in a steel cage, across Florida by van. Needless to say, the werewolf escapes and goes on a brutal killing spree. George and Lou have to recapture him, or be hunted down and executed by the crime boss who hired them. What follows is a gory, ugly, slapstick wolf hunt to end all wolf hunts. In addition to the vivid gore and mayhem, there's lots of humor involved, mostly the clever dialogue between George and Lou as they bicker non-stop through the entire story. Theirs is a love-hate relationship. They both have issues but they're still fast and loyal friends.

Ivan, the werewolf also is witty as only an unstoppable, supernatural being can be. He connives George into opening the cage and that's all he needed to begin his spree of gore. The book never describes how Ivan was captured the first time, so that's open for speculation. Ivan can change instantly into his wolf form... no full moon needed.

This is a wonderful story of two guys and their werewolf buddy. The characterization of all the main boys and girls, is quite well done. As always with Strand books, the editing is superb. There isn't much back story on Ivan, but with a monster, he's pretty self explanatory.

You'll enjoy this book... if you're into blood and gore and humor. The appropriateness of this tale is grossly satisfying. Read it... I command you!

5.0 out of 5 stars Wolf Hunt by Jeff Strand
Reviewed in the United States on November 1, 2011

This is my first time rating a kindle book or any book for that matter, but I wanted to give my opinion of my reading of "Wolf Hunt" by Jeff Strand. This is second book I've read which was authored by Mr. Strand. The first was "Draculas". I thought both books were excellent reads. After I put each down, I couldn't wait to get back to them and see what was going to happen next.

A for "Wolf Hunt", the characters were very well written with developed personalities and motivations. As a reader, I cared about what happened to them and hated to leave them when I was finished. I gave the book 5 stars because I even started to root for Ivan, the antagonist in the story. Ivan was a very evil character, but somehow Mr. Strand makes this inhuman monster likable and you begin understand his point of view. I was wondering what does this say about me? Hopefully, it is just the sign of a good author. As the reader, you understand Ivan needs to be dealt with but it's with regret. Maybe, we'll get "Wolf Hunt II - the Revenge of Ivan". George and Lou have to put their werewolf hunting caps on again :-

A very good, fast paced story that I found myself thinking about after I was finished. If you want more of Mr. Strand, be sure to read "Draculas".

5.0 out of 5 stars Escapism at its best!
Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2011

I seem to have been on a binge of supernatual escapism lately. Fortunately, I found some very good books to satisfy my hunger. But then I discovered Jeff Strand's Wolf Hunt and found out that escapist literature doesn't have to be the mental equivalent of a Big Mac. Sometimes it can be an entire feast.

Strand's premise is simple, two low-level enforcers are given the task of driving a man in a cage across Florida. It should be an easy job for a couple of thugs who are used to breaking bones. Oh ... did I mention that the guy in the cage is supposed to be a werewolf? That shouldn't be a problem, however, since it's two weeks until a full moon. All George and Lou have to do is make sure this "werewolf" stays in his cage for a five-hour drive.

Of course you know something's going to go wrong in a spectacular way in this mash-up of criminals and werewolves. Before you can say "wolfbane" our thugs have been attacked by every dog near the gas station where they stop, picked up an extra passenger, and discovered two things about Ivan, the caged man: 1. He really is a werewolf, and 2. He doesn't require a full moon to transform into a ravenous beast.

From there it's murder and mayhem as Ivan toys with the thugs and leads them on a merry chase that rakes up a high body count. From a suburban house to a late night country bar to a well-armed group of werewolf hunters, the story pulls out all the stops and avoids the cliches and predictable twists and turns.

I'm very pleased with this book and will be watching for the name Jeff Strand the next time I have a hunkering for pure adrenaline-fueled escapism.

this is a really good book. Basic plot synopsis two hired thugs. Hired to transport a guy in a cage who is a werewolf in the giving very specific rules about him. Until they break one of those rolls and they also don't believe he's a werewolf boy were they wrong. Any escapes and starts killing people in horribly brutal ways there. are things in this book I don't like. They also spoil something but this is a really good book lot of graphic. violence the werewolf 's great villain. If you hire thugs they're very likable they have a great banter back-and-forth between them. And really good reluctant heroes at the end and you're some good surprises in this book too highly recommended.

I only discovered Jeff Strand this year and I have to say that he is one of the most intriguing horror writers I have come across. He possesses a fine mastery of horror and comedy that places him in a similar category as J A Konrath (writing under Jack Kilborn) and Neil Gaiman. Strand's latest novel, WOLF HUNT, is just as humorous as his previous titles, but that doesn't hide its horror pedigree one little bit. This is as disturbing a book as you could hope to find.

WOLF HUNT, as you probably guessed, is a werewolf tale, but beyond that it is a unique and fresh tale, almost more of a `road trip' than anything else. The story follows a pair of criminals, George and Lou, whom agree to transport some cargo for the mafia. That `cargo' happens to be a young man purported to be a werewolf. His name is Ivan.

For the first part of the novel, we are left to wonder whether or not Ivan really is what he is reported to be. George and Lou certainly don't believe it, but we, the reader, are left feeling just a little more suspicious about the events that may lie ahead. This indeterminate tension pokes and prods at the characters until their originally calm demeanours begin to unravel. It's here that we are treated to the joyfully crass banter that Strand is an expert at creating. The interplay between George, Lou, and Ivan is hilarious at times and downright sinister at others. The two crooks are hard, no-nonsense characters while Ivan is sarcastic and confrontational. To say their personalities clash is an understatement.

Eventually we learn the truth about whether or not Ivan is in fact a werewolf and it is here that things take a decidedly `road trip' sense of direction. The pace suddenly quickens as George, Lou, and Ivan go cross-country, leaving behind a twisted wreck of human flesh and innocent suffering. Now the comedy takes a backseat to out-and-out balls-to-the-wall horror.

Jeff is a master of creating deep, multi-faceted characters with a warm spark of humanity that has us smiling and screaming in equal measures. This book is no exception and abyssal depths of depravity are reached by some characters whilst a strict moral-code governs the actions of others. This varied mix of personalities is what makes Strand's novel such pain-turners; we get to know his characters and after a few pages we don't want to leave them.

WOLF HUNT is a sick, twisted jaunt through the werewolf genre that follows many of the conventions of the genre whilst completely re-inventing others. It is funny throughout, but quite humanistic in places. A well-developed and finely-structured tale that is sure to appeal to any horror fan.
