Blood Moon Rising by Amelia Faulkner (Tooth & Claw #2)

A pack in turmoil. A ray of sunlight. A moon that demands blood... Randall Carter is in love. If only he could say it to Ellis’ face, but he’s been too busy - or too much of a coward - and now he may never get that chance. With the threat of a blood moon looming in the night sky his Alpha is on the warpath against both a new pack invading his territory and the vampire lover he ordered Randall to destroy. Ellis O’Neill’s problems are mounting fast. Randall’s Alpha wants to kill him, a vampire neighbour invites him to join some sort of coup, and his secrets are stacking up like firewood waiting for a single spark to set them ablaze. The last person he expects to betray his trust is the man he’s fallen in love with. Torn between love and obligation, Randall soon realises that he can’t satisfy both. He’ll have to choose, but the cost may well be more terrible than he can imagine. COVER ARTIST: Cover Design by Amelia Faulkner and Jen Fowler PUBLISHER: Ravensword Press YEAR: 2015 LENGTH: 268...

Animorphs Book 41: The Familiar by K. A. Applegate

Jake sees what happens to the future if he gets sloppy and/or gives up. It’s heart-wrenching, combining a grim visage with a small moment in a hidden garden. We also meet the Orr, an alien species I was looking forward to.

The interactions with each of the Animorphs are different blends of depressing, where this future glimpse shows Jake how completely he can fail if he messes up. The precarious nature of this scenario means its hard to know whether the stories he was told which then conflicted with his observations were because he was lied to for some reason or if some meddling occurred within the event.

There have been a lot of time-shenanigans recently, with this one feeling like a counterpoint to Megamorphs 4 (which looked at an alternate past instead of a possible future). I like them, I just had forgotten that they ramped up for a bit.
