Reception
Publishers Weekly called the anthology "an uneven collection of urban werewolf tales written by some of fantasy's biggest names," stating that "[f]or every tale that pushes the boundaries, two more are content to go through the motions, making this a fairly average affair." The reviewer singled out the pieces by Black, Lee and Friesner for particular praise, but noted that [v]ery few other stories rise above satisfactory or mildly memorable." Editor Schweitzer's own contribution was called "humorous" but "out of place" due to its "vampire-centric" nature.

The anthology was also reviewed by Rich Horton in Locus no. 591, April 2010 and Vicky Gilpin in Dead Reckonings no. 8, Fall 2010.
