Talulla Demetriou is the last living werewolf. And she is pregnant.

Pursued by enemies and racked by the need to kill, she flees to a remote Alaskan hunting lodge to have her child in secret. There, with her infant son in her arms, it looks as if the worst is over.

Until the door bursts open - and she discovers that the worst is only just beginning . . .

Talulla is plunged into a race against time to save her son. Tormented by guilt and fuelled by rage, she is pursued by deadly forces - including (rumour has it) the oldest living vampire on earth. Hopeless odds. Unless, of course, a mother's love for her child turns out to be the deadliest force of all . . .

The reader is Penny Rawlins.

Praise for THE LAST WEREWOLF:



'Loaded with beautifully constructed lunatic ravings . . . A sublime study in literary elegance. It is bloody (and) brilliant.

"
"Sexy, funny, blisteringly intelligent."
"Like an updated version of Dracula, only for werewolves, and as rewritten by Bret Easton Ellis."
"Glorious . . . wry, world-weary Jake Marlowe would make a fabulous dinner companion. Just not during a full moon." (Justin Cronin, author of The Passage)
"A magnificent novel. A brutal, indignant, lunatic howl. A sexy, blood-spattered page-turner, beautifully crafted and full of genuine suspense, that tears the thorax out of the horror genre." (Nick Cave)
"A brilliantly original thriller, a love story, a witty treatise on male (and female) urges, even an existential musing on what it is to be human."
"Duncan is the cleverest literary horror merchant since Bram Stoker."
"I could say that The Last Werewolf is smart, thrilling, funny, moving, beautifully written, and a joy to read, and this would all be true. But it would also be a woeful understatement of what Glen Duncan has accomplished with his extraordinary novel. The only useful thing I can offer you is a simple admonishment. Stop reading my words, and start reading his. Trust me: you'll be happy you did." (Scott Smith, author of A SIMPLE PLAN and THE RUINS)
"The Last Werewolf is written with such scandalous ferocity and such grizzly humour it feels like the literary equivalent of howling at the moon. Not since Lon Chaney and John Landis has lycanthropy been such a blast, and Glen Duncan offers more danger, gristle and lunatic brilliance per sentence than any writer I can think of." (Matt Haig)
"Absolutely brilliant. A surreal, dark and unsettling tale that really did put the bite back into the supernatural. In short, I got a real kick out of it." (Russel McLean)
"Remarkable for its humour, eloquence and self-aware intelligence. A deeply human narrative about the nature of story itself." (Stella Duffy)
"Duncan updates the canon without radicalising it, making this a must for fans of grown-up, realist supernatural writing"
"As well as being thought-provoking, it's all great fun. Some of the conventions are borrowed from genre fiction, but the writing sure isn't... Duncan's writing does more than transcend genre fiction: it creeps up on it in the dead of night, rips out its heart, then eats it" (Scarlett Thomas)
"Duncan's writing is in turn raw and graphic but also beautiful and almost poetic. Either way it leaves you ravenous for more"
"Bonkers but brilliant"
"This bloodthirsty page turner is as far removed from teen schmaltz Twilight as you can imagine"
"The horror genre at its best - wildly imaginative, written with wit and intelligence, wickedly entertaining" (Kate Saunders)
