This was a pretty good book, though I'm not sure how far into I would read if I'd been reading a physical book rather than listening to it.
Elena is a werewolf--the only female werewolf in existence and one of only 3 bitten werewolves (if a werewolf bites someone, they generally kill the person they bit; if the werewolf doesn't kill the human, the transformation process usually does). Elena's got a normal human life in Toronto, living with her boyfriend, holding down a job as a journalist. She tries to deny her werewolf self, but, of course, it always surfaces.
Elena's called back to the Pack, the powerful group of werewolves who basically rule all other werewolves. Really, they keep tabs on mutts (non-Pack werewolves, which would be all but 8 or 9) and keep humans from finding out about werewolves. Elena's trying desperately to break ties with the Pack and have her normal human life. She's also trying to escape her former boyfriend, Clay (who is in the Pack).
Overall, good stuff. I liked that Armstrong reformed the werewolf mythology. For example, silver does nothing, they have to change once a week instead of once a month, and they turn into wolves rather than wolfmen (which isn't a total change of mythology, but whatever). Will I want to re-read (re-listen)? No. But I consider it $2 well-spent.
