WOLF BROTHER (Book 1: Chronicles of Ancient Darkness) by Michelle Paver
PAPERBACK
Author: Michelle Paver
Epic, atmospheric, and unforgettable WOLF BROTHER launches an adventure that feels carved from stone and myth. Set 6,000 years ago, this gripping survival fantasy follows one boy, one wolf, and one impossible promise.
When twelve-year-old Torak watches his father die at the claws of a demon-possessed bear, his world shatters. With his final breath, Torak’s father sends him on a mission that borders on impossible: Find the Mountain of the World Spirit - a place no human has ever found - and stop the creature that wants to destroy everything.
Hunted, starving, and alone, Torak must survive forests filled with spirits, tribes that distrust strangers, ice-cold rivers, and shadows that move like thought. His one companion is an orphaned wolf cub; the only being he can trust, and maybe the only one who can help him. What follows is a journey of courage, instinct, and ancient danger; a story where the bond between boy and wolf could save the world… or cost Torak his life.
Perfect for readers who love wild landscapes, ancient magic, powerful friendships, and quests where everything is at stake. Ideal for fans of Skandar, Percy Jackson, The Hobbit, and wilderness adventures. Raw, wild, spine-tingling; Wolf Brother is the start of a series that sinks its teeth in and doesn’t let go.

- A fast-paced survival quest full of danger and magic
