Customer Reviews

ShapeShifters at thier best!

Steve Vance does an awsome job of humanizing a totally inhuman condition. By the time you have finished this book you you will want to be a full blown shape Sifter yourself. It's slightly reminisant of "Cabal" By Clive Barker where the monsters are the good guys! It truly is one of the better books on the subject. Although, I first read it back in about '92. I still have my origonal copy and I pull it out to re-read every few years just for the pure excitment of being a werewolf in a little part of my mind for a day or two!! You will really enjoy this one!

A INTERESTING SEQUEL TO THE HYDE EFFECT

ALTHOUGH THIS BOOK KEPT ME WANTING MORE. I WAS LOOKING FOR THE SAME SUSPENSE THAT VANCE PRODUCED IN THE HYDE EFFECT. THIS IS A VERY WELL WRITTEN SEQUEL AND I HAVE BEEN EGERLY WAITING FOR A THIRD NOVEL. I AM HOPING FOR A BRIAN LUMLEY TYPE SERIES INVOLVING THE WEREWOLF LEGEND.

A great twist on an old tail!

I just loved this book. Anyone who likes their horror fiction firmly rooted in 'reality' should enjoy it. The characters are a little 2D but you don't care as the story grabs you and takes you on a great ride. The premise is clever and a great twist on the legend for anyone jaded by all the hackneyed re-hashes out there.Now that they've made "Vampire$" into a movie I hope Shapes isn't too far behind (especially now that effects technology is at the required level).

a good follow up to a great werewolf story

I loved the Hyde Effect, as a horrific, violent and scary suspense-filled novel. The follow up, Shapes was an expanded, more fantastically dreamed up world which added a whole new twist to it's lycanthropic predecessor. I, too have anxiously awaited the third installment of this story.

THIS IS A TERRIFIC SEQUEL TO "THE HYDE EFFECT"

AFTER READING THE "HYDE EFFECT" AND "SHAPES" TWICE I SAT DOWN TO WAIT FOR THE THIRD INSTALLMENT OF THIS VERY ENTERTAINING STORY. SINCE THEN IVE READ THEM ONCE MORE AND I AM REALLY GETTING IMPATIENT. ITS BEEN ABOUT 7 YEARS SINCE "SHAPES" AND I NOW WONDER IF THERE WILL EVER BE A THIRD VOLUME.....IF ANYONE KNOWS I WOULD APPRECIATE HEARING FROM THEM.
