Summary

From the author of Mountain Man: Encounter a new breed of fear in the first book of a bloodcurdling werewolf horror series set in the snows of Newfoundland.

In a nearly deserted village off the coast of Canada, strange things are happening. A local hunter discovers bare footprints in the snow. The stray dog population has ceased to exist. And people are beginning to ask questions about the town’s recluse.

But with winter’s most powerful weapon bearing down on the island, it’s about to get a lot worse . . .

Breeds is the first book in a trilogy of terror sure to please fans of Robert R. McCammon, Maggie Stiefvater, and Chase Novak.

The (Audible) world needs more Keith C Blackmore.

Where does Breeds, Book 1 rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

This is definitely a top 10 audio book for me.

What did you like best about this story?

The book flowed at a great pace and didn't take an age to get to the crux of the story. The excellent use of profanity is an art form. For KCB to write and the narrator to perform such venomous words in a way that it makes you burst out laughing is brilliant .......

Any additional comments?

I've never been a big follower of the werewolf, vampire genre but after listening to the Mountain Man series I was desperate to see what Keith C Blackmore's other books were like and it didn't disappoint. I cant wait for the other books in the series to be released and hope that some of his other books get recorded for Audible.

Enjoyed fully !

Great Twists in the story I really wasn't expecting.
Performance by Sean Runette was brilliant as normal.
First werewolf book and I actually loved it.! Witty, humorous and kept my attention all the way through! First book by Keith C Blackmore and have to say I will have a look at Mountain Man it has great reviews too.!
Going to listen to Breeds 2....

a new look at a subject that's been done to death

I'm not getting the narrator as much as I did RC BRAY. but not so bad I didn't get drawn in
to the story. Quite good but MM is a hard one to follow so if judged on its own still a great book.

goood story.bad narration.

i keep asking myself why the narrator has such a bizarre accent. its somewhere between bad irish and scottish. its very distracting because its so bad and unessary.i wouldve preferred if it was confined to the dialogue.
the story itself is very good, full of tension and unexpected twists. i made a pont ok not reading any reveiws or the publishers blurb berorehand. so certain aspects of the story really caught me anawares. this is an unusual take on the warewolf genre without the usual cliches. The very masculine language and point of view is interesting, including the cusswords of the elderly Borland, making him a very relateable protagonist. this is a gripping story and I am looking forward to book 2.

Great story and performed brilliantly!

This is the first book I have listened to outside of ZOMBIE FALLOUT that has been performed by Sean Runnette. I was very pleasantly surprised to find myself hooked on this story almost as quickly as the fallout series. This is not your typical Werewolf story, the author has clearly tried to take the genre and add some great twists and thought provoking theories. A fantastic story performed brilliantly by Sean. Onto book two...!
