Title: The Next Great Superhero!
Review: Frank is the embodiment of the American Ideal of a "tough" cop. Frank symbolically represents that strain in the American culture that desires a hero that is terribly flawed yet ultimately passionate about seeing that justice is done. Frank is a werewolf! "F as in Frank" could have easily taken itself too seriously and eliminated the fun and drama of examining society through the eyes of "the first Boston werewolf cop". Furthermore this book could have reduced itself into a slapstick comedy ridiculing itself and ultimately reducing the protagonist into a mockery of the American ideal of a "crime fighting" superhero. Instead the author skirts these traps neatly, neither adhering to the expected nor creating a farce but rather creating a neat little murder mystery with all of the fun of a Robert Asprin novel. "F as in Frank" is a fun, fast paced, thriller of mystery that will have you "howling" for more. Read it or miss something special.
