   RIP Peter Fonda. He’s with the, er, werewolves now.

   So false dawns sort of cut off abruptly halfway across the sky?

   Was the color originally red and the cover has faded with time? It looks like the werewolf really enjoyed his strawberry milkshake.

   He’s taking on the wasteland with a Daisy™ pump action BB gun.

   When the real Dawn catches up with Chelsea there will be hell to pay.

   I assume this glows in the dark. and you can lick it for some ‘extra’ effects.

   @FB I just hope it isn’t scratch and sniff.

   Nothing pisses a werewolf more than a false dawn. Or a fake full moon. Or a rifle loaded with silver bullets.

   Our good friend Joachim Boaz at SF Ruminations has previously reviewed this book. Check it out.

   Did he savage something with glow-in-the-dark blood or what?

    @Tweet Jane: good show, but it doesn’t say what the wolfman has to do with it. Does this mean I have to watch Werewolves on Wheels again?

    This reminds me of a joke from Mystery Science Theater 3000: “An American Werewolf in Traffic.”

    So if the only law is “survive at any cost” that seems simple enough to grasp, but maybe not so for an idiot werewolf pointing a rifle at either his gas tank or his driving arm.

    I’m hearin’ Steppenwolf Born to be Wild. Anyone else?

    GSS to the mouseover text.

    @JP: It is a Daisy!

    Not going to be of much use in the world described in the review @Tweet Jane linked. And is that dawg in the book? He sure isn’t a main character.

    @Raoul: Me too. What else could be playing?

    When Furries go postal.

    It was the ticks, those goddamn ticks, that finally pushed Rover over the edge.

    Watch where you leave your motorcycle, you might get a barking ticket.

    It looks like one of those billboards that reads “What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.”
