Sharp Teeth: A Novel

Role: Author
Winner of the Alex Award and on Booklists Best of the year in Genre Fiction 2009

An ancient race of lycanthropes has survived to the present day, and its numbers are growing as the initiated convince L.A.’s down-and-out to join their pack. Caught in the middle are Anthony, a kind-hearted, besotted dogcatcher, and the girl he loves, a female werewolf who has abandoned her pack. Toby Barlow’s Alex Award-Winning debut novel, Sharp Teeth, is a fast-paced ride through the brutality of L.A.’s wilderness of drugs, gangs, and the connections people make with one another. Written in verse and blending dark humor and epic themes with the supernatural, Mr. Barlow delivers what he calls a “graphic novel without the pictures” and Kirkus reviews as “a refreshing leap across genres.”
