About this listen

 Step into the shadowy realms of the Black Forest, where Wagner, a destitute and solitary shepherd, strikes a devils bargain that gifts him youth and riches at a chilling cost he must transform into a ferocious wolf once a month. This gripping tale unfolds with elements of murder, kidnapping, robbery, sadistic nuns, lust, and the chaos of war in sixteenth-century Italy. Originally serialized as a penny dreadful, this work may not be hailed as fine literature, but it promises to entertain with its dark twists. Please note that this recording retains certain racial and societal prejudices reflective of its time, included to acknowledge the historical context rather than to endorse them. - Summary by clarinetcarrotCopyright Fiction Classics Art Entertainment & Performing Arts World
