The Anxiety of Kalix the Werewolf by Martin Millar

The Anxiety of Kalix the Werewolf by Martin Millar

Now eighteen, Scottish teenage werewolf Kalix MacRinnalch is settling in London, though she still struggles with anxiety, depression, and self-abuse. Her new friends support her - and all is fine until the Guild of Werewolf Hunters start picking off her clan, one by one.

Most of the Scottish Werewolf Clan have a very low opinion of Kalix Macrinnalch, youngest daughter of the Thane. There is little sympathy for her illiteracy, her substance abuse, her self-harming, her eating disorder, her anxiety and depression and her propensity for extreme violence. Safe from her clan in London, and living with two friendly students, she's been much calmer. If only she were allowed to live quietly, she might get on top of her problems.

Unfortunately, that's difficult for the young werewolf. She's still the number one target for the werewolf hunters, and they're stepping up their efforts to find her. And no matter how Kalix tries to make her life more normal, there will always come a time when, under threat, her insanity and battle-madness will descend on her, and the skinny young girl will again transform into the most feared and ferocious werewolf in the country.

Martin Millar was born in Glasgow, Scotland, but has spent most of his life in London, England. He's written a variety of works, including novels, plays, short tales, and articles. Suzy, Led Zeppelin, and Me, his most recent work, is set in Glasgow. Love and Peace with Melody Paradise; Milk, Sulphate, and Alby Starvation; Lux the Poet; The Good Fairies of New York; Dreams of Sex and Stage Diving and Ruby; and The Stone Age Diet are among Millar's other works. Millar is a fan of Jane Austen's writings and has written a theater adaptation of Emma.

He even penned the novelization for the film Tank Girl. Last but not least, Millar writes the Thraxas series as Martin Scott. He's written five so far, the first of which won him the World Fantasy Award. Millar enjoys watching Buffy The Vampire Slayer, reading history books, especially those about ancient Greece, and playing the flute when he is not writing.
