このコンテンツについて
When I change I change fast. The moon drags the whatever-it-is up from the earth, and it goes through me with crazy wriggling impatience.... I’m twisted, torn, churned, throttled - then rushed through a blind chicane into ludicrous power.... A heel settles. A last canine hurries through. A shoulder blade pops. The woman is a werewolf.
The woman is Talulla Demetriou. She’s grieving for her werewolf lover, Jake, whose violent death has left her alone with her own sublime monstrousness. On the run, pursued by the hunters of WOCOP (World Organisation for the Control of Occult Phenomena), she must find a place to give birth to Jake’s child in secret.
The birth, under a full moon at a remote Alaska lodge, leaves Talulla ravaged, but with her infant son in her arms she believes the worst is over - until the windows crash in, and she discovers that the worst has only just begun....
What follows throws Talulla into a race against time to save both herself and her child as she faces down the new, psychotic leader of WOCOP, a cabal of blood-drinking religious fanatics, and (rumor has it) the oldest living vampire. Harnessing the same audacious imagination and dark humor, the same depths of horror and sympathy, the same full-tilt narrative energy with which he crafted his acclaimed novel The Last Werewolf, Glen Duncan now gives us a heroine like no other, the definitive 21st-century female of the species.
©2012 Greg Duncan (P)2012 Random House Audio批評家のレビュー
“The horror genre at its best - wildly imaginative, written with wit and intelligence, wickedly entertaining.” (The Times [UK])
“Irresistible... As with The Last Werewolf, Duncan writes with caustic edge and pop-culturally relevant humor... His gorgeous prose makes these books more than just werewolf-genre flashes in the proverbial pan.” (Dallas Morning News)
“The arch relationship Duncan establishes with his readers - along with his scathingly intelligent psychological insights and flat-out killer writing, his companionably high-mannered narrative voice, and his mad plot chops - makes Talulla Rising a high-calorie blast... Duncan delivers with intelligent humanity a monster we want to track and befriend, even knowing she would happily eat us alive.” (Heidi Julavits, New York Times Book Review)
