Michael Gallatin is a British spy with a peculiar talent: the ability to transform himself into a wolf. Although his work in North Africa helped the Allies win the continent in the early days of World War II, he quit the service when a German spy shot his lover in her bed. Now, three years later, the army asks him to end his retirement and parachute into occupied Paris. A mysterious German plan called the Iron Fist threatens the D-Day invasion, and the Nazi in charge is the spy who betrayed Michael’s lover. The werewolf goes to France for king and country, hoping for a chance at bloody vengeance.

The Master Delivers Again
Robert MacCammon is a living legend and the Wolf's Hour is another top notch read. Take a Werewolf chuck it in the middle of WWII add a Nazi Plot and you have the ingredients for a top notch action packed read full of intrigue and thrills.
The author puts a great spin on the Werewolf genre and the back story of our hero is just as engrossing as the main narrative. The characters are great and I really loved the villains they where straight out of a Indiana Jones flick. So if you are looking for a supernatural World War II read that is entertaining from the get go then this is your books.

Narration excellent, story disappointing
There were enough positive reviews for me to think this might be interesting, and Simon Prebble is a narrator that I have liked listening to so I gave it a go. However it didn’t work for me. The author spends tedious amounts of time on describing the killing of people and animals, the eating of animals, the feelings of changing into a beast that wants to eat animals and that sort of thing. He goes on and on and on at great length and I was soooo bored. There was the ghost of an interesting story emerging behind all that but I couldn’t wade through all the tedious stuff to go on. I didn’t finish and will be returning it.

Reads like a trashy romance novel
I LOVE Robert McCammon, but I'm about 7 hours into this audiobook and I'm ready to call it quits. First, the book is graphically violent. Normally, I don't mind gore, but the descriptions in this book almost made me sick. I wouldn't mind the violence if the rest of the story gave me something more. However, I find the characters predictable and cliche. The main character, Michael, is a werewolf and also (of course) ridiculously handsome and irresistible to the ladies. He's able to conquer every woman he meets and the book goes into detail about its protagonist giving all the ladies the best sex of their lives. If I wanted to read a trashy werewolf romance novel, I could have shopped in the teen section. I don't mind sex in a book when it's deserved, but I was literally rolling my eyes thinking "Come ON." Michael's conquests, perhaps once strong women in their own right, turn in to putty around Michael and it's honestly boring for me to read about how these women are unable to contain themselves in his presence. Literally one of the lines in the book is about saving dessert for later before Michael and his woman go upstairs to bang. I rarely stop reading a book, but I'm putting this one down and waiting until my next Audible credit rolls around. Again, the characters are cliche, the "romance" is cliche, and I don't find the plot at compelling enough to keep listening. Very disappointed.

Engrossing story
It made me feel like I was sitting around a campfire listening to a master storyteller. Clear, limited characters and easy to follow flashbacks made the story simpe to follow. Narration was perfect. Even the female voices sounded right. If you like WWII stories don't let the wolf twist keep you from this one.

I wasn't really feeling this at first and bought it strictly because Robert McCammon is one of my favorite authors. After an hour or 2 I nearly game up, but I'm glad I didn't. I would absolutely recommend this book, it is well written with great characters.

Enjoyable story with characters I liked or hated
I read a lot of books from this genre - my list looks more like I'm a 15-year old guy instead of a 64-year old woman! I've read several of McCammon's books and Wolf's Hour is a great addition to my library. I would have enjoyed a bit more wolffish time with the main character, but getting to know him in both his human and wolf persona was interesting. And who doesn't hate Nazi's?

Can a Story be Insufficiently Ridiculous?
I was really ready to love - or at least like - this book. I like spies, I like historical fiction, I like werewolves, and I think Robert McCammon's Matthew Corbett series is just great. I was absolutely ready to embrace WWII werewolf spies! And then...the story just didn't grab me. I didn't really connect with the main character, and his relationships with other characters in the story were uninteresting.
The werewolf-focused parts of the story were pretty good - even realistic, which may have been part of the problem. McCammon successfully addresses the workaday aspects of being a werewolf. Michael Gallatin is very chill about being a werewolf. I needed some excitement! YOU'RE A WEREWOLF SPY IN WWII. This should be completely off-the-chain crazy, and it's not even as over-the-top as most Bond novels.
Robert McCammon can be very, very good - and he can also be just OK. This is just OK. If you're looking for a straight-ahead, slightly pulpy action story about a werewolf in World War II, you've come to the right place. If you want a really compelling story about a werewolf in World War II, you might have to go write it yourself. And I'll read it if you do!

True Lycanthrope
If you could sum up The Wolf's Hour in three words, what would they be?
Unique.Thrilling.Interesting.
What was one of the most memorable moments of The Wolf's Hour?
The most memorable for moment for me is the scene surrounding his initial bite into the Russian Clan.
What does Simon Prebble bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Simon Prebble is certainly one of the best. He brings to the story (and all he reads) a sense of narrative that takes us into this story. His style owns the characters.
Any additional comments?
A unique take on the lycanthrope that does not feed into the current monster madness dominating this genre.

A Must Listen
Where does The Wolf's Hour rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Top Ten
What did you like best about this story?
Awesome character development, tight plot even if stretching belief at times but researched well and many historical facts are woven into this fast moving tale. Its ironic that i accepted the man-wolf-man mythology but rejected some of the Norway Chemical plant scenes as far fetched!
What about Simon Prebble’s performance did you like?
I love simon prebble's voice! His narration is top notch in this- to portray many voices and accents from across Europe during World War 2 and American also is a feat in itself.
Any additional comments?
Satisfying Action/fantasy/historical fiction. Satisfyingly long also. Robert Mc Cammon well done! I want more.

This is a fantastic story
I read the book back when it first came out. I loved it then. I ordered it to hear on tape. I know I will love it. This should have been a movie years ago. This is one of the best books ever. I'm so glad Audible offers this story. I love Robert McCammon. I know anyone who orders this will become a fan. I think one of his best. I loved 'They Thirst' and 'Swan's Song'. These are my favorites.

The Best Lycanthrope Story.
McCammon’s description of transforming from Homo sapient to lycanthrope is truly unique and brilliant — you’ll actually feel the excruciating pain in your own skin and bones — bravo! And the story, well, it’s more fantastic and as superbly written as McCammon’s less ‘dramatic’ prose. Loved it! Highly recommended indeed.

Well written World War Two werewolf novel
"The Wolf's Hour" was a surprising and memorable read.
This is not modern urban fantasy, with hip, kick-ass characters, struggling against their wolf nature while trying to save the world from demons in just three days.
This is a book with the self-confidence to save the world over several months (and seven hundred+ pages) AND interweave an "origins of" story as it moves along.
The hero, Michael Gallatin is a man more likely to rip an enemy open that engage in witty reparté. He is a serious, focused man, totally committed to his mission. Turned into Werewolf as a child in post-revolutionary Russia, Gallatin now works for the British Secret Service, fighting to destroy the Nazi war machine.
On the surface "The Wolf's Hour" is the kind of book I would normally pass over: it was written in 1989, the plot sounds like "Indiana Jones goes wolf", the Nazis are bad, the allies are noble, there a snow-bound Russian palaces, castles full of evil Nazis, brave resistance fighters, beautiful women who can shoot, drive tanks or fly planes, and larger-than-life evil bastards with no redeeming features.
And yet this book WORKS.
It works because McCammon can write. He knows how to build a scene and evolve a character. If it takes weeks to get from Paris to Berlin, McCammon takes you on the journey and helps you feel the passage of time and understand the sustained stress imposed by the situation and the focused determination needed to win. He describes places in a way that gets under my skin, whether it's the snow-covered corridors of an abandoned Russian palace, the grotesque grandeur of a Nazi castle or the unbearable inhumanity of a Concentration Camp. He delivers wonderful set-piece action sequences. He allows his hero enough introspection to make him to give him a worldview and not just killer reflexes.
It works because the evil things that McCammon's Nazis do are not fiction but horrifyingly real and he does not flinch away from them. They fuel the anger of Gallatin's wolf and make the Nazis far more monstrous than any werewolf could be.
It works because of the skillful way that McCammon weaves the story of how Gallatin became both a wolf and a man into the story of how Gallatin takes on the Nazis in a way that adds depth to Gallatin's character and delivers a welcome change of pace.
Finally, it works because Simon Prebble is the perfect narrator for the twenty-two hour-long audiobook.
There are things I could have lived without. The sex scenes seem somehow dated, although you could think of them as period, and the scenes with Hitler seemed to add little except caricature.
If you are looking for a change of pace and want to spend some time in another era (actually TWO other eras) and a different perspective on the supernatural thriller, then "The Wolf's Hour" is worth a listen.

WWII Werewolf
It sounds like a daft premise, a werewolf spy trying to beat the Germans, but it was actually a great listen.
Michael is a British spy trying to find out what operation Iron Fist is. The story goes back and forth between his early years as a werewolf and the current situation working with the resistance. I enjoyed the werewolf parts as the war sections were quite harrowing, particularly the concentration camps.

A British spy with a secret...
Where does The Wolf's Hour rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
This is my favourite novel of all time, I first read it around 20 years ago, and even now it keeps me gripped to every page. However, the narrator doesn't hold the suspense very well and his characterisation of each character never changes, even from male to female or accents from different countries, which I found a huge let down
Who was your favorite character and why?
Michael Gallatin...A British spy with a secret
Any additional comments?
This novel is crying out to be made into a Hollywood movie, with the strength of the lead character this could be a huge success...

Captain America with hair and teeth
What great potential. The general premise of the story simply turned into a boys Captain America Comic book with hair and teeth. The characters were all a combination of James Bond super baddies meet Captain America. Boring ruthless killers comic killers. Super-duper schemes to kill the good guy. Perhaps most annoying was that this fellahs "super power", which is that turning into a savage, unstoppable killing machine, goes unused at the most obvious times. Trapped in a deadly utter darkness while facing down an enemy? Why turn into a wolf who can see, smell and hear better, when you can stumble about in the dark? Heck no, lets use it to eat rats! The werewolf genre is so sadly represented, that this is commonly rated as one of the best efforts. When you start with a supernatural element, try to make some aspect of the plot and characters plausible. No Barbarella, no oddjob, no Captain America.

Cracking WWII Adventure Tale.
Entertainingly written, if a little cliche-ridden, rollicking WWII adventure yarn with a werewolf as the protagonist rather than James Bond. The author gets us quickly to suspend our disbelief by keeping to formula. However, McCammon falls short in his attempt to describe the wolf-world and the hero’s time in it with sufficient ”otherness” to avoid reinstatement of our disbelief in the last quarter or so of the book.
