Wagner, the Wehr-Wolf
'Wagner, the Wehr-Wolf' Summary
Wagner, a lonely and impoverished shepherd living in the Black Forest, makes a desperate bargain with a mysterious entity. In exchange for his soul, Wagner gains youthful vigor and immense wealth. However, his newfound prosperity comes with a sinister twist – he transforms into a ferocious wolf once every lunar cycle. Driven by a thirst for power, Wagner embarks on a path of violence and transgression. His monstrous form becomes a tool for committing crimes like murder, robbery, and kidnapping. As the story unfolds, Wagner's actions draw him into a web of intrigue and conflict, particularly in the treacherous world of sixteenth-century Italy. He encounters a group of ruthless and cruel nuns, as well as individuals seeking revenge and justice for his crimes. Amidst the darkness and violence, Wagner struggles with his own desires and the weight of his dreadful secret, ultimately confronting the consequences of his pact. 'Wagner, the Wehr-Wolf' is a tale of transformation, sin, and the price of power, set against the backdrop of a brutal and unforgiving era.Book Details
