A boy. A wolf. A legend for all time. Dazzling entertainment, seamless storytelling - Torak and Wolf begin their quest by doing battle with a demon bear in the first of six adventures to vanquish the terrifying Soul-Eaters.
Born in Malawi to a Belgian mother and a father who ran the tiny 'Nyasaland Times', Michelle Paver moved to the UK when she was three. She was brought up in Wimbledon and, following a Biochemistry Degree from Oxford, she became a partner in a big City law firm. She gave up the City to follow her long-held dream of becoming a writer. Successfully published as an adult author, the CHRONICLES OF ANCIENT DARKNESS are her first books for children.
Wolf Brother combines elements of fantasy, prehistoric fiction and
facts, to make a brilliant book. This the first in a series of six
(and one of the best, too). I would recommend it to any one who
likes wolves (essential!), magic and stone age people!
*THE GUARDIAN*
The story is a rich tale full strong with the themes of survival,
magic and folklore. Michelle Paver manages to install the same
dreams in the reader's head that she once had herself - the dream
to run with wolves in a prehistoric forest.
*FANTASY BOOK REVIEW*
Wolf Brother, the first of six books in Chronicles of Ancient
Darkness, is a terrific read, and I was instantly grabbed by the
throat and whooshed along by the power of the writing.
*HISTORICAL NOVEL SOCIETY*
Rich in detail which brings the past to life and makes the forest
background vivid to all readers
*LOVEREADING4KIDS*
I liked the book because it is a thrilling, packed with a ton of
action, and is an adventure you don't usually find in books. Wolf
Brother never lets you stop reading, and it keeps a ton of
suspense.
*TEEN INK subscriber review*
Wolf Brother is a book where time passes quickly as the reader is
absorbed into a colourful world. And before you know it the book
has ended and you find you just have to grab the next book in the
series and continue reading.
