CFP: Call for Reviews on Werewolf Classics

Dear readers, Dante’s Heart: A Journal of Myth, Fairytale, Folklore, and Fantasy is now calling for book, short story, and film reviews on werewolf classics. Reviews will be perused by our panel of editors; those accepted will appear in Issue 3, forthcoming in fall 2008, a special issue on wolf folklore and werewolf lore.


Suggested titles for book or short story review include Lila The Werewolf by Peter S. Beagle, The Bloody Chamber by Angela Carter, Only the End of the World Again by Neil Gaiman, The Hero As Werewolf by Gene Wolfe, and Moon Dance by S.P. Somtow. We seek brief reviews (maximum 800 words) but not work that is over-quick; we are looking for both wit and depth and freshness of insight.

The deadline is June 15.

Send submissions to editors@dantesheart.com as Microsoft Word or RTF attachments.

We are also continuing to look over submissions of art, fiction, poetry, and essays pertaining to wolf folklore.

Spread the word.

P.S. I haven't actually watched Skinwalkers (above) - the poster just caught my eye: an astonishing amount of saliva.
