Title: The Chronicles of Ancient Darkness: Wolf Brother by Michelle Paver
Why I Started to Read This Book: Well, it’s really funny. Remember the book, Clone Chronicles? Well, every time I saw a book of Chronicles of Ancient Darkness, I thought it was a book of Clone Chronicles. Then, I found out that it was actually an entirely different series from Clone Chronicles so I finally decided to try it.
What is it About? It is about a boy named Torak. He is part of the Wolf Clan. A clan is a group of people that live and hunt together. But his father (who he calls Fa) kept him away from other people - even his own clan. Fa keeps him away from people because he doesn’t want them to know what special thing Torak can do. Fa is attacked by a bear demon and passes away. But before he dies, Torak swears to find the Mountain of the World Spirit. On his adventure, Torak meets his guide - a wolf. Then, he finds out what special thing he can do: He can… talk to wolves! Later on, Torak gives the wolf a name: Wolf. As they continue on their adventure, Torak and Wolf find Renn, who belongs to the Raven Clan. They have an adventure together.
What Did I Like About This Book? Nothing… except, EVERYTHING!
What Didn’t I Like About This Book? Just like Savvy, it was confusing in the beginning but I decided to continue reading anyway. I also didn’t understand some words that Wolf used. Like Tall Tailless. (Can you guess who or what that was?) WARNING! WARNING! Only read this if you have completed the book.*

Does This Belong On My Cool Lane Or Not? DEFINITELY – I have started reading the second book in the series already!
*(Answer: Torak)
This sounds like a pretty complicated plot! But I am sure you will start understanding (and enjoying) the nuances in the storlyline better as you continue reading more books in the series. Have fun!
ReplyDeleteYes. I have already read the second and third book and I understand most of the words Wolf uses.
