Cute little novelette about our world, but a version where magical beings have come back. I liked the worldbuilding and setup, and I did get a little taste of Vancouver from the story. Overall a nice little story.
You really don't want to miss this short story about a baby werewolf and the women that will go to any lengths to protect him. Not to be missed.Plus, it's available for free on tor.com, so what are you waiting for?
Werewolves! Great short story about the practical side of lycanthropy, the lesbian community, and falling in love. I really liked the narrator's voice.Four stars. Recommended. Available for free at Tor.com.
A very enjoyable realistic urban fantasy short story, with touching characters
Oh, hey, here's the queer werewolf story I've been craving. And it barely even has any werewolves in it. Awesome short story about family/community, the pursuit of justice in the face of systems that are weighted against you, and falling in love despite your baggage. Also lesbians (view spoiler)[and an adorable but destructive werewolf puppy (hide spoiler)]. I would absolutely read the novel.
Great werewolf urban fantasy short story, mixing LGBT, suspense and humour. Loved the snarky voice of the narrator.(http://www.tor.com/2010/07/28/the-cage/)
A delightful story about both werewolves and romance (although not technically a werewolf romance).
f/f contemporary werewolf au that’s neither urban fantasy nor about ~packs and mates and whatever; just a sharply smart little story about kindness and cruelty and making families and the power of community (when the community’s protective ire is rising). also, check out this cover, i’m so completely in love with it. reviews on tor are, bafflingly, full of comments marveling that the protagonist is female; it’s kinda hilarious when you think about.
This short story is available to read for free on Tor.com website, or you can purchase the ebook from your favorite ebook seller. Wha'cha gonna do with a baby lycanthrop on a full moon when the police are on the hunt...
This was amazing. Single mommy with a werewolf baby hires another woman to help soundproof her basement, and then attachments happen. Also, werewolf babies are adorable.
Mini-Review:Thanks for the rec, Kaa! A cute short about being a single Mom to a baby werewolf and trying to figure out how to be a good parent while working hard to find justice for the death of her twin. Lots of good messages but the writing was rough and I never caught on to the slang-speech cadence used by Jude. It definitely had great baby moments and I did adore them.Read the story here: https://www.tor.com/2010/07/28/the-cage/
This was a seriously adorable story. The werewolf cub was the cutest thing I've read in a long time!
I looooooved it. So sweet and fierce.
Your heart will pound and you will feel that same indignant rage you get when you watch the news (and the whole thing will come to a very satisfactory close).
AM Dellamonica is quickly becoming an author I need to go searching for more from...The Cage wins many points for being set in Canadaland (in Vancouver, on the Drive! One of my favourite spots in that city), and for doing some interesting things with gender. The premise is that monsters are out in the world, and some people have decided that means it is hunting season. Others bring those terrible examples of humanity to court for killing innocent people. Jude meets Paige, a young mother whose we...
This is a great story. The thing is, werewolves and modern werewolf lore loses me pretty quickly, but that's NOT what this story is about. It's lesbian romance between two human women against a backdrop of fighting anti-werewolf violence. I found it to be a well-constructed suspense story with a neat how-they-defeat-the-bad-guys twist, with the lesbian community coming together to save the day.Basically, it took a skeleton of an idea that was already pretty creative and added even more creative
Chase struggled to his paws. “Arrooo?” It came out a question; then he flopped again. 3.5 stars.Seriously baby Chase the werewolf is the most single-handedly adorable thing ever. <3333 It was worse than I thought. He was all wobbling puppy butt and baby fluff. He had big eyes, long flirty lashes. He batted them at a chew toy, looking like some kid’s cartoon dawg—bink-bink.A quiet “Aroo!” trickled through the baby monitor.“Awww,” I said. Believe me, a dead cynic couldn’t have kept from sayin
Read via the Worlds Seen in Passing anthology.When you’re determined not to fall in love with a woman or her werewolf baby, you probably shouldn’t play contractor, handywoman, or babysitter. The actual plot of this story didn’t catch me for a little bit, but once the werewolf baby came on the scene, I was done for. If you enjoy adorable infant characters, you’re in for a real treat with this one.
“The Cage,” a stand-alone short story by A.M. Dellamonica, was published a few years ago on Tor.com; I read it a while ago, re-read it recently, and am happy to report that it was just as enjoyable the second time around. Jude is a general contractor in East Vancouver; while visiting the local library she runs into Paige Adolpha, the twin sister of a recently-murdered werewolf and newly-minted caregiver of her orphaned nephew, Chase. Paige needs help sound-proofing her basement for what she call...
This was a very interesting take on the classic Werewolf trope! The secret is out and the world knows that werewolves exist. While some people react to this news kindly, accepting these people as part of their community and as half human, other people make it their mission to hunt down these 'beasts'. Of course this begs the question that who then really is the beast when a man takes pleasure in killing something innocent. The main character lives in a city where such a beastly man has killed an...
