Soooo… this is not for the faint of heart. There are no good guys, there’s not really even any less than evil guys. I didn’t like any of them, though the demon wolves were the most understandable. It was their nature to want to murder and rend. Their attitude was unapologetic just like a wild wolf protecting its territory. Snoe did some horrendous things to innocent people in his bid to get revenge for horrendous things that happened to him, but in the end he was as much a monster as any of the others. I did like the dynamics of the seven wolves though. I liked that they each had a different personality, and though they never seemed that bright in their slavish devotion to Snoe, they grew on me. The sex was plentiful and dirty. This is a true harem as the wolves only have sex with Snoe and don’t touch each other.

I did like the nods to the original fairytale while still keeping this fresh. Despite its gruesomeness, I did enjoy the story. But be warned
