Product Description: Romance and magic meet by the light of the moon in this all-new all-star collection of Celtic tales from #1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts and New York Times bestselling authors Jill Gregory, Ruth Ryan Langan, and Marianne Willman.
Nora Roberts "Wolf Moon" makes this worth buying... This is a loosely connected set of paranormal stories. Nora Roberts "Wolf Moon" is ultimately the story that makes this anthology a keeper and it is the only reason that I gave this book 5 stars. The other stories were so-so and dull to the point of actually skipping pages just to get through the story.
"Wolf Moon" is the story of a female werewolf who caught the werewolf "virus" while on a vacation in Europe. Since then she has moved from town to town and has struggled to find a cure for her condition. She ultimately settles down and meets a vet who falls in love with her and wants to cure her.
I don't normally read werewolf fiction, but this story is so well written and the characters are so real that the story draws you right in. It's so good that you ultimately wish the story wouldn't end, like a good book.
I highly recommend this anthology, but only because of the Nora Roberts story. Perhaps borrowing from the library is the best bet for someone who wants to read before buying.
Not The Best As some of the other comments go, the only story worth reading in this book was the one written by Nora Roberts. Her story was great, the others . . . not so much. I struggled to finish the other stories in the book and considered it a huge accomplishment when I was finally done reading it. As a whole the book is definitely not the best.
Nora's the Winner The only reason this one has 3 stars is Nora Roberts. The other three stories were a struggle to get through. I've read their other collaborations and figured this one would be equally great. I was wrong!!!!! Save your money. Borrow it from a friend or the library.
Story of love and magic Nora Roberts and friends have writen another series of stories that you are sure to love!
Nora Roberts - Wolf Moon was a wonderful story of a werewolf (lycan) and mixed up with the strength of love. I have never read a story on werewolves and had never thought I would like it. But this was a pleasure to read.
Jill Gregory - Witch Moon was a story of a journey not only over evil filled lands, but also a journey of learning about hope and faith. A wonderful fairy tale ending that one loves to believe that they lived happily ever after.
Ruth Ryan Langan - Blood on the Moon was a wonderful story based on honor, strength of the heart, wits and love.
Marianna Willman - West of the Moon is a story based on fairytales and folklore that turn out to be more than tales. What a wonderful picture Marianna can paint in one's mind to picture the beauty! Fairies, magic, love, curses and not quite sure how it was going to spin to the end...it was great!
All four stories are a must read and I am thankful I read them!!!!!!
Lover of books I have read the other review entries, and I have to disagree with some of them. I am an avid fan of Nora Roberts, and the other authors she coincides with. I have read all of their short story collections, and have loved every one of them! When I saw this book, I grabbed it off the shelf, and haven't thought twice about it. I do agree with the others that Nora's story was the best, but 'Moon Shadows' wouldn't be the same without the stories from Gregory, Ryan-Langan, and Willman. They are all great others in their own rite. I am looking forward for the next book in this short story series!
