We’re not so much dealing in fantasy here, where something unreal -- ancient races of vampires, fairy tale creatures inhabiting a small town, a hunky hammer wielding demigod from Asgard, etc -- forces us to reassess the reality weve always known. Red Moon is closer in genre to a dystopian near future, where a slight change in course is drawn out to its logical and mostly unpleasant conclusions. You are able to feel the tension of inhabiting a world where perfectly nice people, infected with a disease, might suddenly transform into killing machines. Or worse, where some very not nice people might do the same thing. From our review of Benjamin Percys RED MOON. fictionadvocate/2013/11/25/american-werewolf-in-peril/
