Defiant, nocturnal, moody, and short tempered. Though she sounds like a typical teenager, River is anything but. She's a werewolf. River was once the alpha female of a wolf pack, until one night when she was attacked and bitten by a mysterious human. When she awoke, she found herself completely alone, and changed into a young human girl. Three years later, after being thrust into a world where she doesn't belong, and living in foster care, River believes she'll never know who bit her or why. Then one day in school, all that changes. Enter Daryl, who seems to be a normal teenage boy, though River recognizes him for what he is: the human that changed her. He holds the answers to all her questions, but only offers vague responses. He seems to be a step ahead of her at every turn, giving her only enough information to create even more questions. Although they're playing his game, River is determined to win. As if being stuck in a world she hates, with a life she never asked for, and faced with a destiny she doesn't want wasn't bad enough, River still must find a way to survive every human's greatest challenge: high school.

October 05, 2009: Skyla Dawn Cameron is one of the best writers in the area of science fiction that I have seen so far. I don't normally like this genre, but I love her books and her serials. Her stories like River, Children of the Apocalypse, as well as Curio Killed the Cat, and Catharsis are great stories and will always keep you on the edge of your seat. Her writing style is so unique and you can hardly ever guess what is going to happen next (which I love). You should definitely check out her website and read her stuff which you can find at pretty much any book store. She posts these great serials online which is available to read for free, but don't be cheap throw in a donation if you really like her stuff, which I'm sure you will. Where else are you going to find a great read for free?
