The Wolf Wilder By Katherine Rundell Cover Image

The Wolf Wilder (Paperback)

By Katherine Rundell
$8.99

Readers will enjoy terrific descriptions, action-packed adventure and a superb sense of the brutality, harshness but beauty of the wintery existence that surrounds these characters. It's no wonder dogs are descended from misunderstood wolves, as the bravery and ultimate loyalty of these canines can not be refuted. As with Rooftoppers, Rundell lets readers truly inhabit her world and are fully invested in this satisfying tale. Highly reommended!

(Historical Fiction, ages 9+) - Reviewed by Maureen
