Wolf Chronicles

review 1: Promise of the Wolves has much in common with the Clan of the Cave Bear Series (roughly set 14,000) years ago. In this case however we see the world from a wolf's eyes. Our main character a young wolf-pup caught in a strange conflict between humans and wolves, based on an ancient tradition/rule of a perfect harmony between the two species.Animalistic main characters is always a risk - how animal and how human does one make them? - Hearst pulls this off well. Balancing wolfy passtimes with an apocalyptic storyline this book flows quickly through its 300+ pages.My only worry is that this is an origin story for how people came to have dogs as pets - not that it isn't intriguing just feels a little unepic for 'wolf chronicles'
review 2: The first title in The Wolf ... moreChronicles trilogy brings the imaginative storytelling of a fantasy adventure to years of research on a species that has been revered as mysterious symbols of nature lost. • Fantastical plot based on science: Inspired by the theory that it was wolves, and later dogs, that made humans the dominant species on earth by teaching mankind to hunt cooperatively and form complex societies, The Wolf Chronicles begins 14,000 years ago with Promise of the Wolves. It is engagingly told from the point of view of lovable Kaala—an outcast young wolf who has been charged with watching over humans in order to prevent them from losing touch with nature and thus destroying the world. • An international sensation with tremendous commercial appeal: Hearst’s tale has generated exceptional international interest, with rights sold in more than ten countries. Fans are eager to hear more from Kaala and her pack about their vivid, elaborate world of mythology, peril, and adventure.** less
