Return of the Werewolf

Novel by Guy N Smith (England) 1977.

The Black Hill werewolf, Philip Owen, has been dead for a year, and there have been no further outrages. Until now, that is, and the new maulings coincide with the disappearance from his grave of Philip Owen's body. Gordon Hall, the man who caught Owen a year before, returns to the Black Hill to help with the search, and when Owen's body is found, he realises that there is a new werewolf loose.

After the huge success Smith received with his previous novel, Night of the Crabs, he returns to the genre that started it all for him to produce a sequel to Werewolf By Moonlight. Basically a rehash of its predecessor, this has little new to offer, just a couple of new characters and a bit more of Smith's outdoor knowledge. This second book in the series is far better than the third, but still has little to recommend it. If you must read a Guy Smith werewolf novel, go for Wolfcurse.
