Skin of the Wolf by Sam Cabot
(ARC from First to Read)

The plot of this story revolved around an Indian ledge of shifters, (deer, wolf, and eagle) and an old Indian mask carved out of wood that would make the power of the Awakening ceremony more powerful.

The main 'good' guys were Livia, Spencer, vampires, Thomas, a Jesuit priest, and Michael a shifter (wolf). The main 'bad' guy was Edward Michael's brother and also a shifter (wolf). It was he who wanted the mask to 'Awaken' other shifters, and would kill to get it, and it was up to the good guys to stop him and his friends so the world wouldn't end.

It was an okay story. There were so many characters to keep track of, and of what they were, but with each chapter being a different character's point of view made it easy. But the ending was to quick and simple.

The thing that bothered me the most was what happened in Rome between Livia, Spencer, and Thomas, it was never explained, and of course that story is a different book. (Will I read it? Only if I can find it cheap, Skin of the Wolf wasn't that good.)

Three out of five stars.
