Ratings and reviews

I had this series in paper cover from book fairs growing up and this series is what peaked my interest in books but no other books made me "feel like I was there" as some say but this series did just that for me. The writing style the author had was easy to picture they even had some in depth illustrations like a map so you can easily identify where the story is taking place. Best series for imagination 😊

This is my favorite book. Kathryn Lasky has an exemplary talent for using words with such meaning to them. She beautifully, and detailedly expresses what is seen through the eyes of Faolan, and the other important characters, throughout the book. It expresses such emotion, as if you were seeing through the eyes of Faolan. It includes sadness, but love and respect, too. It is a true piece of literature, lacking any flaws, and beautifully written. Kathryn Lasky, you have inspired me to write, too. Thank you.

My daughter just loves The Wolves Of The Beyond series. She says they are filled with new words, excitement, sorrow, and adventure. She has read all the books, and the newest book isn't even on here. The newest book is Star Wolf. Read the series!
