Book Reviews of Chronicles of Ancient Darkness #1: Wolf Brother CD (The Chronicles of Ancient Darkness)
Book Review: Better for 9-11 y/o
Summary: 3 Stars
My 12 y/o loves fantasy, sci-fi, adventure and more. I don't know if this book sounded too Disney-esque or what. He reads daily, but this book just didn't hold his attention. That rarely happens.
The back of the book really does make one think of the many similarties with the movie "Brother Bear"
I think 9-11 year old avid readers might like this book more than the 12 & over set.
Book Review: This series "HOOKED" my 10-year-old as a reader!
Summary: 5 Stars
I stumbled on this book without realizing it was a series. My 10-year-old son enjoyed it so much that I was thrilled to discover there were three more in the series and purchased them for him from Amazon for his birthday in August. He is about to start book #4, Outkast, and cannot wait! He's officially a reader!Book Review: Fast-paced adventure
Summary: 5 Stars
I picked up this book looking for a quick read and was drawn in from chapter 1. I couldn't put the book down. There is non-stop action - no boring fillers - no unnecessary writing (where you skim through a paragraph looking for anything important, but don't really read). I couldn't wait to run out and purchase the following two which drew me in as well. Now I need to run back out and purchase book 4!
It is geared towards the younger crowd and being a 40ish mom of 4, I still enjoyed it. It made me think about how little we give appreciation to nature and perhaps a connection we could have with it if we weren't maimed by modern technology.
Book Review: Really great book, slightly unusual setting
Summary: 5 Stars
I read this book not too long ago, and I thought it was really great. If I've ever read a book set in this time, I think the Stone Age, then I've forgotten it. Wolf Brother is well written and believable. The story pulls you in, and keeps you reading until the end. It's a hard book to pick up, but once you pick it up it's even harder to put it down. If you start reading it will pull you in, making it nearly impossible to stop until you've finished. The characters are well developed; I especially liked the parts from Wolf's point of view. All in all, Michelle Paver has written a marvelous book that will leave readers frantically searching for the next book in the series.Book Review: Breath-taking
Summary: 5 Stars
I sort of wish this book had been written back in the day when I was a kid. But as I cannot depend on wishes, I will be content that this book was written and I was around to be amazed by it. This is exactly the kind of book I enjoy. When I was young, I was the kid that wanted to be running through the woods surrounded only by nature (probably not by the evil the main character encounters, but hey) and I am sure there are plenty of people out there to agree with me.So clearly Ms. Paver has picked an excellent topic. She takes us back eons into the prehistoric world where Man is still at the mercy of Nature. Humans live in clans, hunting and studying the magic of the world around them.The characters are wonderful, real people who just happen to live in a very distant time. I felt so much for Torak and Renn, and Wolf grew on me like a pet puppy. The descriptions are vivid and rich, but not at the expense of the adventurous pace.This is the next great series.

Six thousand years ago. Evil stalks the land. Only twelve-year-old Torak and his wolf-cub companion can defeat it. Their journey together takes them through deep forests, across giant glaciers, and into dangers they never imagined.
