Wolven #3: Bad Wolf Rising by Di Toft (author) (UK edition)

The Wolven are a noble, almost heraldic breed, bred by kings in ancient times. Woody is one of them. A boy inside a dog, who can change into human form: a kind of special werewolf in reverse. Unlike the werewolves of lore, Wolven have no interest in violence, being of an honourable nature. So Woody and his friend Nat are horrified when they learn that their arch-enemy is creating an evil werewolf pack to rip out people’s throats! They know that they must stop him – although it doesn’t help that Nat’s struggling to control his own shape-shifting abilities. Now the pair must delve back into history, sifting through clues and riddles in the quest to stop one of the worst monsters of all time!

Tongue-in-cheek, original and full of fast-paced action, this witty take on the werewolf genre will appeal to boys and girls alike.
