The Captive by Robert Stallman (Second Book of the Beast)
Listen - You'll hear him chasing the frightened night creatures; breathe - you'll smell the musk of his scent. You know what he is not...but not what he is. A golden bear. A great cat. A more-than-human being who can bend your will to his.
ASSUMES HUMAN FORM...
He becomes a man who knows not what he is, but still he fights for an identity - while the Beast within uses him, drives him in a search that may kill them both.
AND BECOMES A CAPTIVE!
But the Man-Beast has broken the rule of Solitude...and now he will become a prisoner of a force even greater than his own - a force all too human for bestial understanding.
