"Wolf Creek, the Australian independent film that has such great locations and great music. A very simple premise, and it’s surprising. It starts out in this sort of idyllic setting and situation, and it just falls like dominoes into this horrific situation. Your hopes for the characters are dashed, one by one. I just love when I see a little independent film that’s got all the elements of good filmmaking done on a small budget with extremely powerful performances by the two lead characters in it."

Wolf Leader (Arctic Brotherhood #6) by Jane Godman
Wolf Leader is the final book in the Arctic Brotherhood series, and we deal with the last member of the Brotherhood who is unmated - Vigo. It starts with Vigo's past coming to bite him in the ass, but then we get carried away with defeating Fenrir. Amber is his mate, and she is very much a lone wolf, but that is not wholly through her choice. Something happened when she was young which made her this way. She is Vigo's mate, and she's not altogether pleased at the idea of being anyone's mate.

This book started off very well - all the ingredients were there to make this a smashing finale. However, for me, it just didn't quite work. The red herring was more than obvious and I don't think that he actually enhanced the story in any way. Amber's storyline was interesting, but could have been so much more. As for Vigo, it felt 'too' convenient. With the other wolves, it wasn't as obvious and had more depth. And the ending itself seemed rushed to me. Instead of going out with a bang, it was with a whimper.

That being said, this book was nicely written. The pace was smooth (until the end) and the scenes flowed from one to the next. This is the last book in the series, and I would definitely recommend you read them in order to get the full enjoyment of the storylines and the characters. I would recommend this series and urge you to read this book and make your own opinion.

* A copy of this book was provided to me with no requirements for a review. I voluntarily read this book, and my comments here are my honest opinion. *

What can I say about Llarmageddon, well you know what you're going to get from the first five minuet's. There's an alien Llama wondering around killing people. Yes this is as bad as it sounds, the effects are bad, the acting is bad and the story is.... yes bad but it's kind of fun, mostly because the film knows what it is.
The cast know that this film is not good but it looks like they had fun making it and it pays homage to a lot of other films, there are conversation on other films ala Scream, buckets of blood were-Llama transformation and alien eggs because these Lamas hatch from eggs that are laid by males.
If you haven't got a feel for Llamageddon yet then all you need to know is that it's mainly set around a party of teen's/young adults who drink, bonk, smoke and then get killed by the Llama, it's predictable, stupid and only 69 minutes long which is good because if it was any longer I think my brain would have melted and yes IMDB says that the run time is deliberate and that is the type of humour you can expect .
I really can't decide if Llamageddon is a waste of an hour or if it was actually a fun time, I think it rates some where between Zombeavers and the 2019 Wolf. Like Wolf it's very low budget and seems to be made more for the fun of the cast but, unlike wolf, it know this and doesn't take itself to serous. And that makes all the difference, not taking itself too serious makes the film a lot easier to watch.
So if you're looking of a quick watch and don't want to think about it too much you could give Llamageddon a watch, just don't expect to much.
