Book review - The Promise of Wolves
August 14th, 2008
Sarah Clarke of The Torbay Bookshop reviews the latest releases.
The Promise of the Wolves, the first of a trilogy by Dorothy Hearst, begins 14,000 years ago in what is now Southern Europe and introduces us to Kaala, a young she-wolf. In this mythical land humans and wolves are never allowed to interact so when Kaala saves a girl from drowning she sets in motion events that could threaten the existence of all her species. This is of one of those stories which really draws the reader in and a must for those who enjoyed The Clan of the Cave Bear and Watership Down.
Promise of the Wolves, Dorothy Hearst, Simon and Schuster, £12.99, 9781847373274
