Huttser and Palla, leaders of a small wolf pack, are blessed with two small puppies. Larka, the female with a beautiful white pelt, and Fell, a fierce black male. Both puppies are growing up surrounded by stories. And one of the most common ones is of the Sight, an ancient power that allows a wolf to look through the eyes of a bird and to look into the water and see the future.
But another story surrounds the puppies, Larka especially. It is a prophecy, and it speaks of a pup with a coat that is white and a human child being stolen. As Larka’s evil, misunderstood aunt Morgra grows stronger in power with the help of her raven Kraar, and when Fell drowns in a river, Larka and her friend Kar must discover the meaning of the prophecy with the help of a steppe eagle named Skart, a human child named Bran, and an old wolf named Tsarr. Will Larka be able to defeat Morgra and the ancient prophecy telling of the coming of the Man Varg, or will Larka shy away from Morgra’s threat of making her “fight love itself”?
An awesome book, look for its sequel Fell when you’re done. [Jordan]
