Looking for some Werewolf books and i'd prefer books with the main character being a werewolf. Preferably not a romance or erotic based book.

Have you tried The Last Werewolf by Glen Duncan? I've not read it myself, so I won't say whether it's good or not, but it fits what you seem to be looking for.

Meet Jake. A bit on the elderly side (he turns 201 in March), but you'd never suspect it. Nonstop sex and exercise will do that for you--and a diet with lots of animal protein. Jake is a werewolf, and after the unfortunate and violent death of his one contemporary, he is now the last of his species. Although he is physically healthy, Jake is deeply distraught and lonely.
Jake's depression has carried him to the point where he is actually contemplating suicide--even if it means terminating a legend thousands of years old. It would seem to be easy enough for him to end everything. But for very different reasons there are two dangerous groups pursuing him who will stop at nothing to keep him alive.
Here is a powerful, definitive new version of the werewolf legend--mesmerising and incredibly sexy. In Jake, Glen Duncan has given us a werewolf for the twenty-first century--a man whose deeds can only be described as monstrous but who is in some magical way deeply human.
One of the most original, audacious, and terrifying novels in years

Yeah i use goodreads allot but i swear atleast 90% of the werewolf books i see listed there have half naked male models on the front and reading the description for the book and the tags it's obvious they are either romance or erotic fiction. That's why I made this thread because it takes me so long to find books i want to read.

I recently read Bitten, by Kelley Armstrong (http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/11918.Bitten). Even though it's usually shelved as Paranormal romance, and does contain said romance, it's told from a (female) werewolf's point of view, the main character has a no-nonsense approach to life, and the story is as far from cheesy PNR as it can get. Hope it helps-

Already read that one.

Two of the best I've read (though they're not exact fits) are Patricia Brigg's Mercy Thompson series and Jennifer Lynn Barnes' Raised by Wolves series.

Read them both and I really want Raised by Wolves number 4.

I agree, Raised by Wolves is one of the best werewolf series that many have never read.
I had such mixed love/hate feelings about the third book, and then to hear she doesn't plan on writing book 4 after ending it where she did -

What!? No book 4? Wtf is up with that, the first 3 were great it's hard to find werewolf books that do the whole wolf dominance eye contact thing and do it right. Do you know of any other books that are similar to Raised by Wolves?

Here's a quote by the author about a fourth book -

"I’m getting versions of this question a lot these days, and the answer isn’t cut and dry at this point. For me, TAKEN BY STORM ends the trilogy that started with RAISED BY WOLVES. ... I am open to the idea of someday returning to these characters and this world—but if I did, it would be to kick off a new story arc, now that the plot-lines from books one and two have (at least from my perspective) been tied up in three."

Unfortunately I don't know of any other werewolf books that remind me of this series, if you find any let me know as I'm looking too...

Full Blooded by Amanda Carlson is pretty good it does the whole eye contact dominance games and what not. Read the prequel to it too. It was not as good as Raised by Wolves but you really can't judge books like that now can you? Anyway check it out.

I've got them but hadn't come close to getting around to reading them yet.
Now that you've clued me in, I'll have to bump them towards the top of my reading pile.

I may need to do some reviews of them afterwards, or perhaps re-read the Raised by Wolves series and put reviews of them up.
Perhaps it would clue some folks in to what they're missing.
The review of the third book would be wild though, it would have to reflect all the things that were so right and the ones that were so wrong.
Of course part of what went wrong is the lack of a fourth book coming...
It does sound like the author's feeling a little pressure from some of us to continue the series though.

Good she needs more pressure to continue it.... Man I started reading that series because I thought she'd eventually get turned and you know what she did. Then BAM!!! End of the series, and you don't even get to see her in action. Now that was fucked up. Just read Moonlight by Katie Salidas it's a very short spinoff from her vampire series and I did not like it all that mutch. It was the typical Alpha falls for a human and turns her then makes her his mate blah blah blah. Boring and annoying to find that there are WAY to many werewolf books like that....

Oh and something else I find extremely annoying, with books tagged as werewolf and the main character is human fine sure. But when the main character is a witch vamp fae or what ever and there is 1 werewolf that you see maybe 3 times in the book... WTF why do they tag it as werewolf? -.- Stupid!!!

Have you looked at the Mercy Thompson series by Patricia Briggs? Main character is actually a were-coyote, but the stories are pretty much about her involvement with a pack of werewolves. There are also vampires, Fae, etc. in these.

Also, her Alpha-Omega series. These DO have a werewolf as the main character.
