Meet Jake. A bit on the elderly side (he turns 201 in March), but you’d never suspect it. Nonstop sex and exercise will do that for you—and a diet with lots of animal protein. Jake is a werewolf, and after the unfortunate and violent death of his one contemporary, he is now the last of his species. Although he is physically healthy, Jake is deeply distraught and lonely.
Jake’s depression has carried him to the point where he is actually contemplating suicide—even if it means terminating a legend thousands of years old. It would seem to be easy enough for him to end everything. But for very different reasons there are two dangerous groups pursuing him who will stop at nothing to keep him alive.
Here is a powerful, definitive new version of the werewolf legend—mesmerising and incredibly sexy. In Jake, Glen Duncan has given us a werewolf for the twenty-first century—a man whose deeds can only be described as monstrous but who is in some magical way deeply human.
One of the most original, audacious, and terrifying novels in years.

I found myself enjoying Glen Duncan's writing style within the first five minutes. He's clearly a very talented author, and by far a cut above your average literary pilgrim. Hat's off to Robin Sachs as well, for really capturing the spirit of the the characters.
This book has quickly shot to the top of my list, when it comes to well written works to study and learn from. While I wasn't blown away by the overall story, it was an engaging enough concept to hold my attention through to the end. There's depth in characterization, and a believable tone to the protagonist.
If you're looking for a werewolf tale with a healthy degree of grit, I highly recommend this title.
Intriguing, Poetic, Visceral.
