Summary: A good book to read
Review: Cycle of the Werewolf is a good book. it was written by Stephen King and illistrated by Berni Wrightson. There is 126 pages of good excitement. The title of this book means that there is a werewolf and it comes out every month on a full moon in a cycle. The cover has a werewolf on it and thereby tells it is about a werewolf. The important characters are Marty a boy in a wheel chair, and he is upset because the fireworks were cancelled. Kate was a young girl about ten or eleven years old. And Uncle Al who is important because he is with the kids at the end of the story when the attack happens. This story takes place in 1983, from January to December. The story happens in a city named Tarkers Mills, in Maine. The setting of the story takes place when a railroad worker is playing cards with himself, and he hears a scratching sound, then all of a sudden a werewolf jumps in the house. The plot of the story starts in January, with a full moon. The werewolf jumps in the house and eats the railroad worker. Then in February the same thing happens just to a different person until the month of December when suddenly something goes wrong. Read the rest to find out the conclusion. The golden line that I wish I could of wrote was on page 14. "Something inhuman has come to Tarkers Mill as unseen as the full moon riding the night sky high above". I would rate this book a seven out of ten. I admit the book was short and quick but it also had some good parts that really go me excited. I would recomment this book to someone in the 9th and 10th grade because it is a good book but it does have some bad language.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Stephen's Lure to catch readers is here!
Review: The whole idea of a warewolf is ubsurd but the best. Stephen proves to move the warewolf tale along smoothly. Not as scary as The Shining but scarier than Cujo. Plus, this book delivers massive attack from Mr. Horror and even Ms. Fiction. I disliked the ending because it was silly. But who cares, I took only 1 star off but in a way, it's a detailed book that's provacitive, original, clean in every way, yet dirty to the mind. I loved it and I hope that you like it too. After all......Warewolves are scary.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Great Snack Book, Excellent Illustrations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Review: I have tiptoed around actually sitting down to read this book for a long time and when I saw a mint condition copy at a local book sale I grabbed it. I wasn't disappointed. Simple minded critics have attacked the brevity of the book (I guess the concept of the short story is beyond them) but it really is a good "werewolf" story. The illustrations helped move the book along though. I recommend that if you are sick of watching half hour situation comedies on television pick this book up. It's a good diversion from tv.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: The movie was better
Review: This book was the shadow of the movie. Being a Stephen King "Book", I thought it would have been better if given more thought and detail along with better dialog. The illustrations were good. I recomend to read the book first, watch the movie, then compare the two for your self. Thats the only way you will be satisfied. The movie is called "Silver Bullet", baced on the book. ;#

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Okay...but wat too short!
Review: This book was okay, but I read it in about an hour or so. The story was alright, but it was very predictable. Buy this for the illistrations, check it out from the library for the read.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: This is a good book.
Review: Cycle of the warewolf is a really good book, but the problem with it is is that it is not very scary. Despite that, it is a very good book.

Rating: 4 stars

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: GREAT BOOK AND ILLUSTRATIONS
Review: I am 10 and I love this book I am a huge Stephen King fan and for my age group I think this is the best book possible.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: NOT RECOMENDED to quick, good illistrations
Review: This book is way too fast. It can easily be read in a few hours. Not only that, the story is too predictable. However the illistrations are good, and most likely the best part of the book. I definatly do NOT recomend this book. It's hard to find and not worth the trouble. Not even close in comparision to the other king books.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I wouldn't know I can't find the first chapter.
Review: I have liked all of Mr.Kings books but I wouldn't know if I like this one because I can't find the first chapter. I have tried to find it on line but for some reason I can't. I think that this book and others should be available in on line libraries.
