  2. Wow! I didn't see that coming! And I thought I was smart because I guessed early on that the couple did it. You outtwisted me! I love it!

  4. Well! My mind went in a completely different direction when the leader closed the window shield. I thought maybe something was happening on the earth that he didn't want the crew to see.

    I enjoyed the story!

  13. Barbara Martin, I've thought about a couple of different sequels. Not sure if I'll ever write them. Thanks.

  15. I'm a means to an end reader :) Just kidding. I enjoy reading but the ending is important to me and I love happy endings only!

    I guess it was a happy ending to the couple.

    Please let us know when you publish the sequence :)

  17. Loved your story, Charles! (I also left a comment over there.)


    So what did Lana say about your choice of names? :-)

  18. Charles, the human touch made the story so believable. Loved the end twist! Multiples babies called a "pack". Perfect!

  19. Ocean Girl, Yeah, the werewolves were certainly happy. they had lined up a great future!

    Laurie Powers, thanks Laurie, I appreciate that and you taking the time to comment.

    Vesper, thanks, I appreciate you doing so. And I'm glad you liked it. Lana knows I did it to honor her feralness!

    jodi, glad you liked. the multiple babies came to me at the last moment when I thought I was done with it, and I decided to throw it in.

  22. Jennifer, glad you enjoyed for Halloween.

    Rick, thanks. Most of the ending twists came to me at the last minute as I was putting the finishing touches on.

  23. I liked it a lot, Charles. It just goes to show it doesn't matter where you go, a person should always go armed. :)

  24. That was quite a wicked twist there, Charles. Very well done. I was thinking the same as Travis. After I was thinking how can a pregnant woman stomach cleaning up a murder scene...now I know :)

    Thanks for sharing...so perfect for Halloween.

  25. A dandy as I said over there.

    Sums up my state of mind today.

  30. BernardL, good advice. Have you ever read Jerry Ahern's books? that could be their primary theme.

    L.A. Mitchell, yeah, and the clean up as probably done in a way unpleasant for us to think about!

    pattinase, thanks, and thanks for commenting at BTAP as well.

    Avery DeBow, The moon is a harsh werewolf.

    Christina, thanks! I'm so glad you enjoyed it.

    David Cranmer, I'm glad it's being well recieved!

    G, I'm looking forward to watching some freaky TV this weekend.

  31. I like that, Charles. And I didn't see it coming either. I'm glad I'm not one of the crew/prey on that ship.

  32. Mary, well maybe the werewolves would spare you!
