Hunter’s life is at a turning point: After years of fighting his father for it, he’s gotten top surgery. He’s finally starting to feel comfortable in his own skin . . . only to be attacked by a strange creature in his backyard.
Luckily, his best friend Gabe intervenes, and Hunter is able to walk away from the incident with his life—and new body—mostly intact. Still, something isn’t right. First, his wounds are healing . . . strangely. Then there are the feverish nightmares, and his teeth . . . they’re falling out of his head.
Enter Mars, Hunter’s other best friend, who points out the obvious: That mysterious creature was a werewolf, and Hunter is becoming one too—unless they can figure out a way to kill it.
Now, Hunter, Gabe, and Mars are in a race against time. A voice that could only belong to the creature itself is worming its way into Hunter’s head, and as the days pass, it’s getting louder. It promises revenge on Hunter’s transphobic peers if he succumbs to his lycanthropic transformation. Or he can reject the monster and fight alongside his friends before the body—and life—he’s fought so hard for slips away for good. The choice is Hunter’s.

Critic reviews
★ "It’s a thrilling, provocative parable about body dysmorphia and transformation both earthly and mythical." —Publishers Weekly, starred review
"Kisner combines werewolf lore, visceral body horror, and queer coming-of-age in this original transgender horror novel about identity, bodily autonomy, and self-love....ending with a much-needed message of acceptance, that 'our lives were always worth living.'" —Booklist
"It offers an interesting vantage point into the idea of feeling out of control of one’s body and the emotional fallout it can cause....will draw in readers looking for an unlikely romance." —School Library Journal
"Raw, unflinching, and deliciously disturbing.” —Kathryn Foxfield, author of Good Girls Die First
“Equal parts poignant and terrifying, The Transition is a master class in horror. In his sophomore novel, Logan-Ashley Kisner continues to shine a spotlight on the bravery of trans kids in the face of (literal) monsters.” —Emily Cooper, author of Season of Fear
