A different take on the traditional M/M werewolf romance topic: less romantic, less traditional, more disturbing and with more conniving wolves, vampires and humans. -- Book1 of the MetaWolf series.

MetaBattles is the 4th MetaWolf book, a ‘polarizing’ and politically incorrect series of the M/M werewolf genre, with kinky sex, non-traditional wolves (scheming betas, raping enforcers and gamma assassins), a Meta suffering from PMS, and nine vampire queens – only outdone by a pack on ‘‘roids au naturel.’ –- It is advisable to read the first three novels (Meta, MetaOrigins and MetaShadowLands) before and MetaPrompts in parallel: http://www.gayauthors.org/story/johnar/metaprompts

MetaDeaths is the 5th MetaWolf book, a 'polarizing' and politically incorrect series of the M/M wolf shifter genre; with odd wolves (submissive enforcers), odder humans (a Meta), and even odder vampires, only outdone by one queen that is a queen in more ways than one. It is highly advisable to read the first four books in the series (Meta, M-Origins, M-ShadowLands and M-Battles) and the M-Prompts until chapter 35 before this book. -- 'You should have chosen differently.'
