WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE. If New York is the city that never sleeps, then L.A. is the city where you have to sleep with one eye open. Michael Andrews learns quickly that it's not just the cut-throat world of Hollywood you need to be leery of. There's something deeper, darker, and far more disturbing lurking beneath the surface of the city, operating in the shadows and striking at the most vulnerable. An extended trip to Los Angeles to be on set for the movie adaptation of his latest novel leads Michael into a world of glamour and fear. He becomes entangled with an intriguing, sexy, and mysterious woman. At times she seems just what he needs in order to finally get over the unrequited love of his ex-girlfriend; but at other times, her presence appears to be the gateway to a Pandora's box of B-movie nightmares. Can Michael trust her with his secret? Can he trust himself with her? Michael's supernatural wolf-enhanced powers and special abilities might not be enough to survive this harsh and gritty jungle and the long tentacles of white supremacy that have long lurked beneath the surface, waiting for the right time to make themselves known. This audiobook is read by Scott Overton with author notes read by Mark Leslie. It also features music and vocals by Alicia Witt.… (más)

It's werewolf story, so who needs a plot? but even on that basis this is ridiculously thin. It's 180 pages of emo-werewolf before anything happens. The remaining 100 pages don't progress matters in any way.

I've not read the first book in the series, but there's what feels like sufficient re-cap to get the gist: Michael was attacked somewhere in Canada and suffers uncontrolled lycanthropy after sunset whenever the moon is 80% full, so for about 10 nights a month. He's got used to this and is making a successful living as a writer. When he came clean to a previous girlfriend she dumped him for his years of evasions and he's been unable to cope since. Nearly all of this book is him yearning/moralising/flirting/regretting with random women he comes across which is creepy.

He flies out to LA (carefulyl avoiding his trigger periods) to be part of the film being made of one of his books. At no time does any werewolf action happen instead he mopes around a lot goes to bars, meets several women who fall at his feet before he picks one of them, moans some more, beats up some right wingers without going doggy and then comes home.

Do not bother. ( )
