Publisher Marketing: An unassuming werewolf joins forces with a teen vampire in this humorous addition to the Totally Lame Vampire series. Luke Thorpe is great at math and terrible at sports. He prefers to stay in the background when possible, but suddenly he's found himself howling at the moon and doing a lot of really hairy things! Turns out Luke is going through a phase. Or more like a transformation. He's a werewolf. How does an average kid whose biggest problems until now have been avoiding the school bully and preparing for his end-of-the-year exams cope with these changes? (He really has to study, not chase cars!) He's going to need help--a whole pack of it. But when war threatens to break out between the vampires and the werewolves, can Luke and a new pointy-toothed friend save the day? Review Citations:
