As young, curious and naive Clayton begins his transformation into
a werewolf, he is befriended by Jeremy, another one of his kind,
who is anything but your typical Alpha Male. As their bond deepens,
Jeremy's aggressive and undermining father, Malcolm, enters the
picture to make life unbearable. Loyalty remains strong in the Pack
but when Jeremy is faced with an important decision, the agonizing
pain of trying to integrate Clayton into human society while
teaching him the ways of raw survival, now seems all too much to
handle.
Kelley Armstrong is a powerful author with a niche for writing
empowered stories about mystical women. In Men of the Otherworld,
Kelley continues to show her brilliance of story telling and takes
a different path this time, focusing on the strength and complexity
of werewolves: Clayton, Jeremy and Malcolm, all males with
extraordinary gifts.
Although I had initially thought that this book would have four
completely separate stories, they were woven in perfectly to create
a thought-provoking and emotional journey through words.
I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who enjoys tales
that extend one's mind into other spiritual worlds, yet can be
thrown back into the harsh realms of reality, without a moment's
notice.
