What to expect
The debut novel from viral horror sensation Brian Asman, Good Dogs is a heartfelt and harrowing story of survival, belonging, found family, and the lengths we’ll go to protect it.
No one ever said being a werewolf was easy. Take Delia, for instance. She’s spent much of her life fighting against her own nature, plagued by nightmares of childhood trauma, and trying to find her place in the world. Many werewolves are just like her: ostracized by their families, forced to live alone and in secret as they await those nights when the Change overtakes them.
Becoming the den mother to an odd bunch of lycanthropes in Southern California isn’t exactly the answer Delia was looking for. But under the strict rules of the house, they are able to manage the Change safely and hunt without endangering their San Diego suburb. And they aren’t lone wolves anymore, they’re a pack—a family.
But when one member’s carelessness leads to the discovery of a severed leg in their backyard, Delia and the rest of her family are forced to confront the cold, hard fact they’ve known all along—they don’t belong here. Their only option is to cover up the kill and head into the wilderness, far from people. There, hopefully, they can live out their lives without posing a threat to anyone else.
At home, they might’ve been apex predators. But in the wilds around Talbot—a town abandoned for a century—Delia and her pack aren’t the only ones with a savage bite …
Critics Review
“A found family of werewolves—found wolfpack?—pitted against something wayyy worse, Asman’s Good Dogs is thrilling, funny, bloody, and a howling good time. Read it under the full moon!”
“Asman’s latest—a stunning debut novel—takes what you thought you knew about werewolves, turns it inside out, and tears its head off. An excellent, propulsive story with lots of sharp teeth and eldritch supernatural evil to boot. Once you start reading, the only thing that’ll get you to put the book down is the rising of the full moon.”
“A fantastic and exceptionally original take on the werewolf story, with a lot of heart, and bite. Good Dogs by Brian Asman is his best work yet, a story about complex family structures, struggling to belong, and learning how to survive.”
“Alpha author Brian Asman runs wild with Good Dogs, and you’re right there in his pack, feeling the wind in your hair, the blood in your throat, the very meat in your mouth. This is a book you want to sink your teeth into and let the words bleed down your body, drenching yourself in its sun-kissed carnage.”
“An extraordinary horror author.”
“Good Dogs combines thrilling action and paranormal horror with heart. Quite the read, indeed.”
“Good Dogs is exactly the kind of book you want to read this Halloween season.”
“Rising like a full moon on Friday the 13th, Brian Asman brings bloody slasher mayhem to this western werewolf yarn. The thrill of the hunt is alive on every page, but it’s the humanity of these good dogs that will keep your heart on a leash until the final paw print.”
