The Werewolf of Ponkert, Paperback

"The Werewolf of Ponkert" first appeared in Weird Tales magazine and H. Warner Munn remembers that the idea stemmed from a query of H. P. Lovecraft's which asked why someone did not attempt a werewolf story as narrated by the werewolf himself. The story is placed in fifteenth century Hungary, where its central character is forced to join a werewolf pack through the power of a creature known simply as the "master" - a creature patterned in the tradition and manner of Melmoth the Wanderer. This book contains a second story, "The Werewolf's Daughter". In it, the daughter of the narrator has grown to young womanhood, and is confronted with the hates and fears and superstitions of the towns-people, all of whom know the history of her werewolf father. And always in the background looms the shadow of the immortal "master".
