Wolfsbane and Mistletoe The editors of Many Bloody Returns deliver the perfect howl-iday gift, with new tales from Patricia Briggs, Carrie Vaughn, and many more. Let's face it—the holidays can bring out the beast in anyone. They are particularly hard if you're a lycanthrope. Charlaine Harris and Toni L.P. Kelner have harvested the scariest, funniest, saddest werewolf tales, by an outstanding pack of authors, best read by the light of a full moon and with a silver bullet close at hand. In New York Times bestseller author Charlaine Harris's "Gift Wrap," Sookie Stackhouse is all alone for Christmas and feeling mighty sorry for herself, until she has an unexpected encounter with someone who has bigger problems than loneliness. #1 New York Times bestselling author Patricia Briggs's lone wolf David Christiansen mends fences with his daughter and gives a young man an unusual Christmas gift he's sure never to forget in "The Star of David." In "Christmas Past," by New York Times bestselling author Keri Arthur, Hannah gets an unmerry—and possibly life-threatening—Christmas present when the hunky werewolf who dumped her last Christmas Eve turns up as her partner on a hunt for a vampire serial killer. In New York Times bestselling author Carrie Vaughn's "Il Est Né," Kitty is struck spending Christmas alone in a Waffle House, until she ends up playing Christmas angel to a brand-new werewolf. But when dead bodies start to stack up like pancakes, she has to decide if he's been nice or very naughty. Whether wolfing down a holiday feast (use your imagination) or craving some hair of the dog on New Year's morning, the werewolves in these and eleven more frighteningly original stories will surprise, delight, amuse, and scare the pants off readers who love a little wolfsbane with their mistletoe.
