A Dark Breed is a creature feature that doesn't reinvent the wheel, but definitely has a lot going for it. The pacing is great and the writing is cinematic. I didn't feel like I knew the characters well enough to really care about them. The creatures themselves aren't described super well, and maybe that's on purpose, but the rest of the writing was so descriptive that I felt a little cheated there. Overall, a good read that would make a great movie. 3.5 stars
