Why read it?
1 author picked The Wolfen as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This is the first novel I ever read that made me into a lifelong fan of horror fiction. It’s a werewolf story but set in New York City, which no one had ever done before. Not to my knowledge anyway.

I admire a book that can take horror tropes and create something fresh and different from them.
From Lee's list on that will make you afraid of the dark.
