Summary: No Sophomore Blues
Comment: This 2nd book by Steve Hamilton, with the return of ex-cop turned sometime p.i., Alex McKnight, was surprisingly good...since this was Hamilton's 2nd book I was not expecting alot (thought he might live on his laurels since he won the 1999 Edgar, well..you all know how it goes)However, you need not have read A Cold Day in Paradise to quickly become absorbed in this novel.. Quick plot, frantic at times,his descriptive tones of winters in the upper peninsula make you want to grab a blanket. I eagerly look forward to the next Alex McKnight tome, however I wish his books were better edited: spelling errors

Summary: Doesn't Get Any Better Than This
Comment: When you find a writer as good as Steve Hamilton, you wish they'd write faster so there'd be more and more of their books to read. Winter of the Wolf Moon is another terrific outing for Alex McKnight. Having started with his most recent book, I had to buy the previous ones (and I've got the new one on order) and I've discovered that this is an author who hit the ground running and never lets up. Alex is a character with warmth, integrity and gently self-mocking humor. He is so well-realized that his every move and thought is completely valid, as is the behavior of all the other characters in this book--including the weather, which has a personality all its own. The miserable cold, the ever-accumulating snow are vital to the plot twists; and the ending is completely unpredictable. Never does the author inflict himself on the material, but rather allows the characters to speak, to live and breathe for themselves. This is a can't-put-it-down tale, too soon ended, splendidly done.
Most highly recommended.

Summary: Worthwhile Read
Comment: This is my first Steve Hamilton book and as an author I enjoyed his often unhero like hero Alex McKnight. Hamilton's word artistry had me cringing at the pain one man can inflict on another and at his apt discription of a cold snow-encrusted winter. I plan to share "Winter of the Wolf Moon" with all of my reading buddies and I look forward to purchasing another Hamilton novel.
