Whenever
the moon is full ... it comes back!
Commentary
At first sight, the title appears
to imply an academic treatise of sorts on lycanthropes and lycanthropy.
With Cycle, King has deviated from convention and adopted a unique
approach to the telling of the lycanthrope's tale: the werewolf in
question did not come about as a result of the bite of a werewolf, but had
simply....happened, there being no reason for it. In typical style, King
has also not shied from using the most gruesome and horrendous of
descriptions and scenarios in writing Cycle, and the hero comes in the
most unlikely form of a crippled 10-year old. Cycle makes for a most
enjoyable and thrilling read. -- A reader from Singapore, Amazon |
