WereWoman Kindle Edition

by Piers Anthony (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
3.9 3.9 out of 5 stars 61 ratings
In this delectable fantasy romp, a shape-shifting private detective with sexual identity issues hunts a serial killer preying on the Supernatural community

Who but the indomitable Piers Anthony could write a hard-boiled detective-novel-fantasy-comic thriller featuring demons, succubi, zombies, ghosts, serial murder, gender bending, and a healthy dose of good, clean sex? Anthony’s remarkable imagination has taken glorious flight once again with WereWoman—and no one does it quite like Piers Anthony!

The classy dame who walks into fledgling private eye Philemon’s office is like Venus in motion and is most definitely a Witch. But dealing with Supernaturals—or “Supes” for short—is Phil’s beat, since he himself is a shape-changing Were. And this sexy sorceress is offering him the “friendship of her thighs” to investigate a murder, so how can he possibly refuse? But the Warlock slaying in question turns out to be only the first in a series of homicides, because someone—or something—is picking off Supes like insects. Soon the search begins leading the brand-new dick into places outside the mundane realm—into a Demon amusement park, through the doors of an Incubus-Succuba dating service, and into some very sticky situations where he’ll need to undergo a supernatural sex change just to stay alive.

    A very different type of novel from the pen of a master writer!
    Supernatural people are being killed. Everyone is innocent. How will they figure it out? Read and see!

    This was a light, fun noir style erotic fantasy, but is not for the Xanth adult-conspiracy-not-showing-it fans, nor the early Anthony hard SciFi pulp era fans.

    Interesting concept but the details soon grew too similar to keep my interest up. I probably wouldn’t read another book in the series.

    What a fun PI mystery from one of my favorite authors, Piers Anthony. When Supernaturals become the target of a deranged murderer, a newly minted PI takes on the case. the results? A string of seemingly unrelated deaths excalates. Our hero/heroine were is hired to solve the messy crimes. The outcome? Read the WereWoman and discover a whole new level of criminal justice.

    Great. I can't wait for the sequel. it is a neat twist on how supernatural people could live and function in our society. It also had a good mystery plot and just enough spice to show how all peoples can interact.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Some atypical supernatural creatures as par for the course with Piers Anthony, but lacking in storyline
    Reviewed in the United States on October 24, 2014
    “WereWoman”
    By Piers Anthony

    In this book humans are mundane and supernaturals or “supes” are the superior species. The supernatural creatures have different primary, secondary and tertiary powers. The primary is to speak their own secret name that transforms them; secondary can be anything from psychic ability to enchantment; the tertiary is typically illusion that is taught to all supes while young so that they can hide themselves from humans if need be.

    A new detective agency has just opened up run by Phil, the PI, and Syd, a close friend and fiancée of his best friend, Bear. They are no sooner open for business, when a beautiful, seductive witch saunters in to hire the firm to investigate the murder of a warlock. Even though Phil is very green, Nonce wants to hire him because it is supe business and he is a Werecreature. There are different types of Werecreatures. Phil’s is very atypical. His unusual type and his uncommon secondary power will make him a formidable private investigator.

    He no sooner decides to take the case, when the office receives a call about another supe’s murder. One closer to him that will drive him to use all of his powers to find the murderer of the supes.

    The killer exploits the weaknesses to murder the creatures. Both the suspects and the victims are creatures from all clans like warlocks, weres, vampires, zombies, etc. In order to catch the murderer, Phil must learn the carefully guarded secrets of the various clans. All of the supernaturals must cooperate to catch the killer before he or she strikes again.

    Once again, the author discovers new ways to take the typical supernatural creature and twist it to make it his own. I liked how the book involved all forms of supernatural creatures. It made it more interesting. However, the plot was a little thin and the ending somewhat predictable.

    1.0 out of 5 stars Piers Anthony Seems to be Going Downhill
    Reviewed in the United States on March 12, 2024
    Verified Purchase
    I have been a fan of Mr. Anthony for many years, having read the Incarnations of Immortality, Xanth Novels, and several one offs including the Shade of the Tree and Hard Sell, and I usually love his writing style. However, I find his newer works (2005 and later) to be sadly lacking in any real plot and this book fit that bill completely. The plot is thin, and it almost seems like he mashed up garbage from some of his better works into this very unimpressive and dull work. There was almost zero effort placed in meaningful character development, and over all I only finished reading it because I paid (overpaid if truth be told) 8 bucks for it. I Will not let this ruin my fandom of Mr. Anthony, but this has got to be one of the worst novels he has ever written.
