Publisher's summary

As the jaws of winter clamp down on the city of Halifax, the light recedes and new terrors arise, in the second book of this werewolf horror series.

Months after the war with Borland and his vicious werebrood, Kirk and Morris are experiencing curious aftereffects. They’re stronger, faster, and no longer vulnerable to the sharp sting of silver. On the other hand, they're forever hungry, and nothing they eat provides the same nourishment as what they consumed on the island of Newfoundland.

When a mysterious stranger rides into Morris’s territory wishing to hunt, the warden knows the visitor isn’t after deer. The ultimate race begins as Kirk and Morris lead a host of wardens to put down one of their own before the next full moon—when an entire city will be subjected to one voracious appetite.

Breeds 2 is the second book in a trilogy of terror sure to please fans of Robert R. McCammon, Maggie Stiefvater, and Chase Novak.

You are killing me Mr Blackmore!

Once again I have a confession to start with, I have a bit of a man crush on Mr Keith C Blackmore. His 'Mountain Man' series and his first free title 'The Hospital' got me absolutely hooked on the zombie genre. Now hundreds of dollars later I am still consuming zombie titles faster than a fast zombie doing something very fast! But now he has really pushed me over the edge, he has forced me out into another genre. Lucky for me this new genre has some slim pickings, and hopefully won't cost me as much. The 'werewolf' genre! Seriously Mr Blackmore, I can just give you my bank details and you can take my cash as soon as I get paid.

The first book in this series left me hanging and I feared I would not get to see the second one. So imagine my joy when I see book 2 had been released. I was even happier when I noticed Sean Runnette was again the narrator. Sean's voice is the perfect match for every one of Mr Blackmore's created characters. It seems like a match made in heaven, except for one thing. Sean Runnette in my mind is a very slow talking narrator. I have always found myself speeding up his narrated titles. Sometimes up to 1.5x speed. However, in this case the story is that good I would have sped it up anyway because I just wanted to know more and I wanted to know now!

However, with the speed of the narration in mind and with the shortish length of this title (9hours) your dollar per hour ratio is affected. It might be important if you are on a budget. You will easily blow your cash on a title you will listen to in one sitting!

I found this one even better than the first and look forward to what happens in the future with this series. If only Mr Blackmore could figure out a way to introduce Gus from 'Mountain Man' to 'Breeds'

This fatman could not get enough of this one. I will give this one my two thumbs up a big grin and a stupid sounding 'heeeeeeeeeeeeeey' (fonzie style)... and please Mr Blackmore let there be a third in the series, and let it be fast!

Dying for more.

I'd listen to anything Sean Runnette narrated. But I'm glad he reads Keith's books. I'll be looking for more.

Great continuation to an awesome modern WW story.

The two protagonists are very relatable and likeable. Mad that I have to wait for the 3rd story.

Thought Werewolves were suppose to be scary?

Pretty awesome story but I thought Werewolves were suppose to be tough and scary. One minute they are unstoppable and the next are simply subdued and managed.

It would be nice to like more than a few characters

There are a couple of fairly likable though certainly not lovable characters. However they're about as complex, multifaceted and sharp as a butter knife.

Unfortunately - outside of the very few - the rest are not just stereo-typical but very unlikable and one dimensional. I found myself disgusted by a constant introduction of fairly irrelevant yet irritating ancillary characters whose only purpose seemed to be suspicious of the decent characters.

The same was true but to a much much lesser degree in the first book.

The first book at least seemed to have a story going somewhere. This book just seemed to be creating a little arc to bridge the first with the third - I can hope.

Sadly this book didn't tell me anything more about either the protagonists - and why anyone should give a crap about them - background - why one is so conflicted etc. and certainly why in the hell he should give a crap about such a Byatch except for reasons that make him even more unlivable and pathetic. Certainly not noble.

I usually enjoy this author but here - just wish he'd spent a bit of effort on developing interesting characters. Of the very few of interest and somewhat fleshed out - one just got killed off in a nano second and the other only likable one got all of a phone call.

9 hours I won't get back - fortunately this is one I could listen to while doing something else so not a total waste.

Here's to hoping the third redeems the first two - especially this second placeholder.
