Elkie Bernstein: The Collected Covers

So here you go, the reveal of the Fool If You Think It’s Over cover alongside the covers for 25 Ways To Kill A Werewolf and A Pack Of Lies, marking the official completion of the Elkie Bernstein trilogy.

Three book covers together

There are technically spoilers in the covers – but only if you know what you’re looking for.

Fool If You Think It’s Over is out now from Fox Spirit Books [External Link] as of 29th January 2017. Here’s a quick run down of the trilogy, including links to various background pages:

The trilogy takes place in my Fur-Skins world and the main character is Elkie Bernstein who is also the narrator. It’s basically about coming of age in a rural location, in this case North Wales, and – probably not surprisingly given the first title – dealing with werewolves.

Book 1. 25 Ways To Kill A Werewolf

‘My name is Elkie Bernstein. I live in North Wales and I kill werewolves.’

When Elkie finds herself fighting for her life against something that shouldn’t exist she is faced with the grim reality that werewolves are real and she just killed one. Part diary, part instruction manual Elkie guides the reader through 25 ways you can kill a werewolf, without any super powers, and how she did it.

25 Ways To Kill a Werewolf is available in paperback [External Link] and ebook [External Link]. (These links are for Amazon.co.uk but other Amazon sites are available.)

If you’d like a taste of what the book is like, here’s Elkie’s opening prologue and the first method.

You can also find a Goodreads page [External Link] and a Booklikes page [External Link], if you’d like to leave a review or read other people’s.

Book 2. A Pack Of Lies

Things are going sideways at Dr. Olsen’s Institute in Norway, a home for wayward werewolves in all but name. Ben is being held for playing dangerous games, Dave is being held for not playing well with others, and Elkie is not entirely sure whether she’s there as a prisoner or a guest. Angry and afraid, she struggles to cope now the games are over.

But are werewolves really capable of rehabilitation or redemption? What does Olsen really want from Elkie and those she feels responsible for? Can she trust anyone any more? Life was simpler when it was just about killing werewolves.

A Pack Of Lies is available from Amazon in paperback [External Link] and ebook [External Link] (Again, these links are for Amazon.co.uk but other Amazon sites are available.)

We also have a Goodreads page [External Link] and Booklikes page [External Link] for this one – and reviews are always welcome.

Book 3. Fool If You Think It’s Over

As far as Elkie’s concerned, it’s all over and her happy ending is just around the corner.

She’s on her way back to Wales having freed Ben from the clutches of the controlling Dr Olsen and ensured that Dave, her ex-everything, will never be in a position to kill again. She’s even managed to find herself a (somewhat unwilling) father figure in Conn, the one werewolf in the world who seems to have his shit together. All she has to do is say “thank you” to the Valemon, a company so at odds with Olsen they were willing to support her, then get on a plane for home.

Easy, right?

Fool If You Think It’s Over is available from Amazon in paperback [External Link] (Again, the link is for Amazon.co.uk but other Amazon sites are available.)

We also have a Goodreads page [External Link] and Booklikes page [External Link] for this one – and reviews are always welcome.
