Publisher's Synopsis:
BENEATH THE DIM LIGHT OF A FULL MOON, MADNESS REIGNS. . . .
As night descends on Cincinnati, the city braces for hell on earth: The populace mutates into huge, snarling monsters that devour everyone they see and act upon their most base desires. Planes fall from the sky. Highways are clogged with abandoned cars, and buildings explode and topple. The city burns.
And when daylight comes at last, the same monsters return to human form, many driven insane by atrocities committed against friends and families. . . .
Only four survivors are immune to the metamorphosis: a smooth-talking thief who lives by the code of the Old West; a bank teller who’s put her past behind her; a wealthy, disillusioned housewife; and a desperate teenaged runaway. Together they form an unlikely quartet that must find a way to stop the apocalypse before the next full moon.
William D. Carl lives in Cincinnati, Ohio. This is his first book.
My Thoughts:
This book starts out with men robbing a bank and the action doesn't stop from there. The story takes place over a few days, with several main characters who you learn to like. When night falls, almost everyone in the city turns into werewolves. Men, women, and children, they all go crazy and kill whatever is in sight, including each other. Rick and Chesya spend the night inside the banks vault to stay alive, but as the next night falls, they find that they can't use it again since the battery no longer works. So they race around to try to find a safe place to hide out until daybreak comes again.
Christian is a homeless boy who does 'favors' for an older scientist. After the outbreak of werewolves, he travels to the scientists lab to try to find out if he knows anything, but finds him dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. He discovers his journal and realizes he is the one responsible for the outbreak. The three come together while hiding out and then try to alert the military without getting killed by the werewolves or the guard. I Rated This Book: 4/5 Stars.

I would want my husband with his gun collection with me.
Honestly, I'd probably give up and get eaten lol
I guess, I would become a tasty meal?
Thanks so much for the

I think my options are fight or flight...I'm pretty sure I would try to run away...and then probably die as I wouldn't be able to run fast enough.
hide and kill anything that tried to get me
Cower
try to figure a way out of course mverno@roadrunner.com
I'd put up a real fight.
I would talk about all the crazy contagious diseases I have and how terrible it would be to eat me
I 'd squish 'em!
Hmmm, I'm torn between praying and shouting about my deadly virus. :-) Thank you.
I'd tell them I have worms. ; )
I'd start praying that some big hunky hot guy was going to rescue me!
Well, I hope I had enough ammo on me or close enough to get to it! lol
Shout, I have a gun... and it's loaded.
Hopefully someone who ran slower than I did was with me.
