Luke likes math,
debate, chess, and mostly he likes doing well at school. When its time to study
for end of term exams, Luke is right on creating his studying schedule. That’s
when some very odd things start to happen to him. When he finally figures out
that he is a werewolf, Luke knows that he needs help. Help comes with much more
than he bargained for, like an all-out war with the vampires.
This book looks
for all purposes to be quite youthful, based on the cover and the lined pages
and the illustrations. But I found the text to be very much for older students
like middle school or higher, hopefully with some knowledge of British culture
and words. The vocabulary is very advanced. I like the story, but sort of wish
it had been shorter. Maybe a good read for reluctant middle school readers?
