]There was also another one called "Striper Assassin"

I posted my review of this book this summer... it went something like this:

"It was dark. He did not like the book. She was the huntress. He is prey. It
is raining."

the WHOLE book is written in this style! It was neat for the short story, but
not for a whole book. I'm surprised it got published, personally. (ack! I
flamed a FASA product! Run away!:)

I agree that the writing style was poor but the information
and different points of were-animal views were nice. Castallano,
Striper and R??? (forgot his name). :) I thought is was
insightful and we were able to create a narcoject smg, the Jama 5.
