Pack
Pack: A Novel | Mike Bockoven
3 posts | 3 read | 4 to read
Cherry, Nebraska, population 312, is just off the highway between the sticks and the boonies. Its where Dave Rhodes and his friends have lived all their lives. They own businesses, raise families, pay taxes, deal with odd neighbors, and, once or twice a month--just like their fathers before them--transform into wolves. Its not a bad life, but when one of the group members goes astray, it sets in motion a series of events that will threaten to destroy the delicate balance that has kept Dave and his clan off the radar. Between a son getting ready for his first transformation--called The Scratch--a wife with sordid secrets, a new sheriff who knows nothing of the creatures in his midst, and a mysterious man in a bow tie with a shady agenda, the middle of nowhere is about to get very dangerous.

Between a Pick and a So-So.
Lots of action, but not quite as much character development as I would have liked.
There‘s a lot of characters, and some we feel we know well by the end. But others… 🤷🏻‍♀️
Good enough for a light read.

Reggie I have 2 of his other books and I‘m excited to try them. 1mo

A pack of werewolves exists in the small town of Cherry, Nebraska. One of the pack will meet his end but not before endangering the pack‘s way of life and the small town. This was that small town book, full of secrets, with lots of drama, with humor to break it up. I never felt scared, but I cared for these people and their neighbors. As with all short good books, I just wished the author had expanded on just about everything and everyone. Pick.

vivastory I feel like good werewolf stories are rare. Looking forward to this one! 3y
Reggie @vivastory after FantasticLand I thought I‘d check what else he had. It was only 1.99 on kindle. It‘s good but not as sharp as FantasticLand. 3y
Sweettartlaura Agreed- not as sharp as Fantasticland but still worth a read 👍🏻 1mo

In a moment of levity, the quiet barkeeper speaks up for the local pack of werewolves who are trying to convince the new sheriff of a small town to let them be in peace. Lol
