Blood of the Wolf Book

I have noted, on several occasions, that Werewolf: The Forsaken is one of the few game lines out there (maybe the only one) that I will buy and read books for despite knowing that I'll probably never get to use them. (Since, as near as I can tell, I am the only one of my group of gaming friends that actually is interested in the game at all.)

Still, I enjoy reading the books, at least so far, and while it took me a couple of tries to get into this one (this reading was not my first attempt), once I got into it, I enjoyed it quite a bit.

Blood of the Wolf is a look at the nitty-gritty, almost scientific details of what life as a werewolf is like. As the book itself points out, this is potentially a very useful book for first time players, because it breaks down some universal truths about the life of a werewolf without getting into the various factional politics that govern were-life. The book instead focuses on werewolf physiology, general survival skills, and a bit of information about the wolf-blooded (people who are related to werewolves, but haven't become werewolves yet).

Overall, it was a fun an interesting read. It's really only useful to someone running a Werewolf game, but still, a fun little book. Not much more to say beyond that…
