Blog tour - Wereworld: Rise of the Wolf by Curtis Jobling

Today sees the start of an (appropriately) epic blog tour for an epic new series. Wereworld: Rise of the Wolf is the first in a new fantasy-horror series by Brit author Curtis Jobling, set for publication on the 6th January 2011.

The UK corner of the blogosphere is set to become extremely buzzy about this one throughout January. You can find full details of the blog tour over at Once Upon A Bookcase, where my blogger buddy Jo has posted the tour schedule in full. With an impressive twenty seven tour stops, the tour will feature a 'Were-Creation Competition Challenge', where a drawing started by Curtis Jobling himself - who is also known as an illustrator - will be sent among some of the bloggers involved to add to. The finished drawing will be up for grabs via a contest at one of the tour stops, so if that's piqued your interest, make sure to follow the tour along for more details.

Summary from publisher's website: 'YOU'RE THE LAST OF THE WEREWOLVES SON. DON'T FIGHT IT . . . CONQUER IT.'

When the air is clear, sixteen year-old Drew Ferran can pick up the scent of a predator.

When the moon breaks through the clouds, a terrifying fever grips him.

And when a vicious beast invades his home, his gums begin to tear, his fingers become claws, and Drew transforms . . .

Forced to flee the family he loves, Drew seeks refuge in the most godforsaken parts of Lyssia. But when he is captured by Lord Bergan's men, Drew must prove he is not the enemy.

Can Drew battle the werecreatures determined to destroy him - and master the animal within?
