Peter Stubbe is a less-than-average werewolf. Nobody in his pack respects him, mysterious goons in hazmat suits chase him through town... and now, through a lack of sex education, he's infected his human girlfriend with lycanthropy. Now she turns into a werewolf every bit as big and strong as Peter is NOT... and he has to keep her under control, or else the secret existence of werewolves is blown. PETER IS THE WOLF: THE FIRST TWENTY-FIVE HOURS introduces readers to Peter's world, where werewolves and other lycanthropes live normal everyday lives alongside humans, remaining "in the closet" about their furry side. There's a little bit of drama and a lot of comedy... but none of the angst and melodrama you might have seen in some other fantasy stories!

Reviews:

"Superb re-invention of the werewolf mythology! Peter is the Wolf is a fun new spin on a shaken-but-not-stirred mix of Lum (Urusei Yatsura) and An American Werewolf in London." - Fred Perry, creator of Gold Digger

"A hilarious romp sure to appeal to fans of both comedy and manga." - Ben Dunn, creator of Ninja High School, Warrior Nun Areala and Marvel Mangaverse

Review:

I didn't expect this book to be so engrossing. While staying true to various major tenets of Werewolf mythos, Overstreet and Rodriguez have succeeded in reimagining their own addition to the genre in new and original ways. The story is solid, funny in many places and sexy in others, with very little room left unfilled. Not one page was boring or caused me to skip ahead, and I definitely need to read more of this series. --James Grant, author of Pedestrian Wolves and artist of Two Lumps: the Adventures of Ebenezer and Snooch
