Summary: Not worth the read
Review: After getting a chance to read Laurell K. Hamilton, Wild Blood should be tossed into the trash. Even though its about werewolves and not vampires, the book is lackluster and the characters are dull and boring. Its too easy to guess where the plot is going, there are absolutely no surprises. Its a simple and quick read (took me an hour and a half to get through), which doesn't manage to get the reader involved in the story. I wish I had never stumbled across the author.

Summary: Nice Wolf....Story could have been better... 3 1/2 stars
Review: After reading other books by Nancy Collins, this book fell short of my expectations. The story had a stong beginning but slowed down and became a little far fetched even for a Werewolf story. It seemed like the main charter was directed throughout the entire story. From how he found the band of werewolf's/to the great meeting/to the final battle. Just to many unrelated occurrences needed to happen for this story to work. I would recommednd this book for any Nancy Collins fan (I am a big fan of her work) but this would not be on my must read list.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Too Wild!
Review: I read Wild blood at a time when I was consuming a great amount of books. This one really stuck out. I am a big fan of horror, and this book does NOT disapoint. Anyone interested in Werewolf mythology has gotta give this a go. It's up there with Stephen Kings "Cycle of the Werewolf" and Robert McCammon's "Wolfs Hour" it's a sterdy read, that you'll find breezing through in no time, it is really hard to put down.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: If you haven't read this book yet, then your missing out
Review: This book has everything a horror fiction reader absolutely loves. Death, Blood, Gore, Dismemberment. Anyone who hasn't read this book yet, is definately missing out. I have read this book over and over again, and I am still enchanted by the story line and the characters. This book is definately a must read.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: not too bad but some suggestions below
Review: this book is a bit inconsistent but its Collins and for fans of Sonja it will be a decent book. For non Sonja Blue readers: read those, you will be much happier with them in general. Werewolf fans: Anita Blake has much more realized lyncanthropes.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of Nancy Collins' best
Review: This book was wonderful and refreshing after running into countless boring werewolf stories. I really enjoyed this new take on werewolves. The characters are fascinating, the plot is fast-paced and enjoyable, and the writing is high quality. Some scenes may not be for the faint-of-stomach, but then again, such people should perhaps not read modern horror in the first place.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wolfchild's Review of Wild Blood
Review: Well, to be quite honest, I could NOT put this book down. I found it to be a very entertaining book and it was VERY well written. I used to own this book until it was stolen from me and I'm very sad that it was. Every time I read it, I see something I didn't see before!

The story begins with Skinner Cade, away at college only to hear that his mother is dying in the hospital. He goes to see her and on her deathbed, it is revealed to him that he was adopted! Things begin to pick up from there as Skinner is thrown into a wild mix of constant action and werewolf society!

This book is a real page turner and I THOROUGHLY enjoyed every page! I give this book a VERY DESERVING 5 stars! Kudos to Nancy A. Collins!
