A boy. A wolf. A legend for all time. The fourth book in the internationally bestselling WOLF BROTHER (Chronicles of Ancient Darkness) series by renowned author Michelle Paver.

Cast out from the clans and hunted by all, Torak is on the run. Cut off even from Wolf and Renn, he takes refuge in unknown territory - the haunted reedbeds of Lake Axehead, where he is menaced by the Hidden People. But other threats lurk nearby and his battle with the Soul-Eaters is far from over ...

As he fights for his life, Torak uncovers a deception too awful to contemplate, one that shakes him to the core and shatters the world as he knows it.

Audio edition also available, read by Sir Ian McKellen.

Dazzling entertainment, seamless storytelling - Torak fights soul-sickness, the Otter Clan and the Hidden People, in his fourth adventure to vanquish the terrifying Soul-Eaters.

Reviews
Paver skilfully enters different perspectives to depict an entire human culture in action. There's nothing "primitive" about her hunter-gatherers... she shows a dignified and resourceful culture rooted in a strong sense of connection with its environment. * THE GUARDIAN *
