Customer Reviews

Excellent, heart wrenchingly fabulous!

First of all, this is not the fifth book, it is the 4th. The fifth is yet to be published. (Grayheart is the 6th) This book will knock your socks off. Yes, it is very depressing and very upsetting, but very necessary. If you are a fan of the Wolfwalker series and have faith in the author - you'll love it. If you prefer a happy ending, however, heed caution before reading this book. This book needed to take place though - Dion needed to discover herself - she was unhappy with her life and very discontented. Trust me, it is a tear jerking read, but you'll love it. (And if you pay really close attention to the epilogue you may realize that the ending isn't quite so bad afterall) I loved it - and would recommend it to anyone.

"Good Grief!" Not an easy book to read!

I LOVED this book! But I also think that I was "ready" for it since my father passed away this year. Like they say, no one can understand grief until it is experienced. The end was a little confusing but I'm hoping that Aranur's story helps to clear some of that up. Like the critic says, the book is NOT an escapist novel, if you are looking for a book that has a solid happy ending, this is not it. Instead it will rip-away everything that you knew and show you that "the future is all that holds us together (Gamon)".

Very good book

I personally enjoyed the fifth book in the wolkwalker series. I admit it wasn't my favorite, but it was well written and inspirational. Be ready for a tear jerker though! I didn't think a book could actually make me cry, but this one did! I just hope she comes out with a sixth!

Wolf's Bane - Nominated for the 1998 Oregon Book Awards!

A striking veneer of realistic, nonstop action over a philosophical treatment of grief. Many levels, many twists, and more suspense than a hangman's noose. An excellent book.
