As
Marines, Lieutenant Lucas Young and Sergeant Noah Hammond have something in
common; protect and serve duty first attitudes. However, Lucas is human with
little knowledge regarding the needs of werewolves. Fortunately for Lucas, Alpha
werewolf Noah joins the unit. Before long, Lucas and Noah become a legend in the
midst of the military forces, not merely because of their fighting abilities but
because of the special bond Lucas and Noah share.
The Strength of the
Pack is the first book in The Tameness of the Wolf
series.
This is an impressive plot
featuring life in the military. What I found particularly fascinating are the
American werewolf soldiers in combat with Middle Eastern werewolf soldiers. The
characters are remarkable. I am especially fond of Noah, who exhibits
authoritative yet self-controlled rule over the pack. As the Alpha, Noah insures
that no werewolf is left behind during their full moon runs or in combat. With
Lucas, Noah is temperate as well as tolerant. Noah teaches Lucas the importance
of touching. Having had no training dealing with werewolves prior to Noah
joining the unit, Lucas is often confused by his feelings for Noah.
Nevertheless, Lucas slowly begins to comprehend the strong personal connection
he has with Noah.
