In my opinion, this was the horror book of all horror books. The author describes these creatures so perfectly that they are completely believable, and after years I can still picture them in my head. I still flinch and think "Wolfen" any time I am outside after dark and I hear the slightest noise

Whitley Streiber's 1978 debut novel about werewolves in New York is set from cops perspectives and the werewolves. Forget the 1981 movie and read the book.

First read this in the late '70s and have never forgotten it. Genuinely frightening but with the uncanny ability to make the Wolfen sympathetic characters. A masterpiece.
