They
live among us in the shadows: a species unknown to man except
in legend. Highly intelligent, with the ability to adapt
their flesh to new forms, they are capable of great destruction
and ruthless behavior but desire only to live in peace.
In New York City, a rogue member of their underground society
threatens to reveal their existence to mankind, which will
provoke a terrifying war unlike any seen before.
Anthony
Mace, the heroic captain of an NYPD homicide unit, is a
media darling because of his successful record in apprehending
serial killers. But Mace faces the case of his career—a
case no one else wants to touch—when a series of vicious
and bloody murders sends the city reeling in panic. His only
clue is a historic artifact discovered at one of the crime
scenes: the hilt of a sword with a broken silver blade, bearing
the likeness of a pious Inquisitor . . . and an angry wolf.
Each horrifying
murder leads Mace closer to an impossible truth that his
superiors refuse to consider. In the midst
of a national media firestorm, Mace must risk his career—and
his very life—to stop this supernatural horror.

“The
Frenzy Way is an awesome blend
of police procedural and bloody werewolf action. It’s
easily Lamberson’s best novel—and I loved his
first two!”
~ Jeff Strand, Bram Stoker Award nominated author of Pressure and Dweller (December 2009)
“A
werewolf serial killer whodunit with real teeth, The Frenzy Way is
a razor-sharp read from beginning to end. Lamberson’s
tale is a police procedural, werewolf historical, good old-fashioned
monster movie mash up, a winning mix to
be sure, but what really makes the narrative shine are its
deft characterizations. Even the tiniest bit players seem
alive, vital, a crucial part of the puzzle, making this wild-in-the-streets
werewolf hunt all the more tense. Highly recommended.”
~ Michael Louis Calvillo, Bram Stoker Award nominated author
of I Will Rise and As Fate Would Have It (December
2009)
“The
Frenzy Way is a grinning, snapping chainsaw of a novel,
so grab some heavy gloves
and eye protection and hang on for a fast, fun ride.”
~Jeff Jacobson, author of Wormfood (December 2009)
“From the opening paragraph,
Greg Lamberson’s The Frenzy Way sinks its long, dark
claws into you, refusing to release you until your shaking
fingers have turned the very last page. There is a chilling
seduction to the intelligent, gritty crime noir style in
which this distinctive take on the werewolf myth is delivered
that is exquisitely terrifying, breathtakingly harsh, and
beautifully brutal. The Frenzy Way is horror at its absolute
best!”
~ Gabrielle S. Faust, author of Eternal Vigilance (December
2009)
“.
. . combines popular werewolf legends with American Indian
myths to produce a delightfully
gory horror novel. . . . A solid addition to werewolf literature.”
