Don't Forget Me: The Curse of the Wendigo by Rick Yancey

I couldn't help but notice that several bloggers have been displaying recent book releases. None that I stumbled upon had this amazing book by this awesome author mentioned. Remember last October when I reviewed The Monstrumologist by Rick Yancey (if not click here)? The Curse of the Wendigo is the sequel, and I have been waiting and waiting to get my hands on this little beauty.
This novel will be released on October 12, 2010. It may already be available at your local bookstore. You just HAVE to check this out.

While attempting to disprove that Homo vampiris, the vampire, could exist, Dr. Warthrop is asked by his former fiancÉ to rescue her husband from the Wendigo, a creature that starves even as it gorges itself on human flesh, which has snatched him in the Canadian wilderness. Although Warthrop also considers the Wendigo to be fictitious, he relents and rescues her husband from death and starvation, and then sees the man transform into a Wendigo. Can the doctor and Will Henry hunt down the ultimate predator, who, like the legendary vampire, is neither living nor dead, whose hunger for human flesh is never satisfied? This second book in The Monstrumologist series explores the line between myth and reality, love and hate, genius and madness.

Read a sample chapter here.
