THe Were Chronicles Omnibus is a collected edition of three novels, Random, Wolf, and Shifter - a triptych of stories about a society so like and so very unlike our own - where Were creatures can coexist alongside "normal" humans, but are subject to fear, prejudice, discrimination, and bullying.
In this particular story, first young Jazz Marsh Turns into something unprecedented, throwing her family and the Were authorities into a spin. Then her brother Mal, frustrated beyond reason by his own delayed Turn, takes matters into his own hands and chooses his own destiny, inflitrating the shadowy Lycan clan in order to help expiate his perceived guilt in his older sister's death. He's helped by his friend, Chalky, a true Shifter who is capable of Turning into anything he pleases unconstrained by the rules of Were kind.
A coming of age story that is fantasy grounded in science, it is aimed at a general readership but particularly commended to older teens.
