TERROR BEGAN IN JANUARY--BY THE LIGHT OF THE FULL MOON... The first scream came from the snowbound railwayman who felt the fangs ripping at his throat. The next month there was a scream of ecstatic agony from the woman attacked in her snug bedroom.
Now scenes of unbelieving horror come each time the full moon shines on the isolated Maine town of Tarker Mills. No one knows who will be attacked next. But one thing is sure.
When the moon grows fat, a paralyzing fear sweeps through Tarker Mills. For snarls that sound like human words can be heard whining through the wind. And all around are the footprints of a monster whose hunger cannot be sated... --back cover

Eine Werwolfgeschichte im klassischen Stil ohne große Überraschungen. Die Geschichte an sich ist allerdings durchaus nett erzählt. Dazu die wundervollen Zeichnungen von Berni Wrightson – und das Drehbuch zum Film, bei dem der Leser ein für alle Mal bestätigt bekommt, dass King diese furchtbaren Filmdialoge wirklich selbst schreibt.
Whoever decided to add illustrations to a Stephen king short story(?) deserves a raise
The worst S. King novel imo
An enjoyable and nicely-illustrated novella that didn't overstay its welcome.
Standard '80s King, with the trademark monster this time being a werewolf, as opposed to clown, or vampire. Well-written, if a tad repetitive when you know his other fiction; again, a small town shredded, and, again, a kid in the center. - Still, even so, an entertaining story, especially if you look for modern renditions of the motif.
