More About This Book

Overview

Bestselling author Kathryn Lasky's Wolves of the Beyond, the stunning new spinoff from the legendary Guardians of Ga'hoole, is now in paperback!

A wolf mother has given birth, but the warm bundle snuffling next to her brings only anguish. The pup, otherwise healthy, has a twisted paw, and the mother knows what the harsh code of the pack demands. Her pup will be taken from her and abandoned on a desolate hill. The pack cannot have weakness - the wolf mother knows that her pup is condemned to die.

But alone in the wilderness, the pup, Faolan, does not perish. This his story - a story of survival, of courage, and of love triumphant. This is Faolan's story, the wolf pup who rose up to change forevever the Wolves of the Beyond.

Editorial Reviews

Children's Literature
In the wilderness, where survival depends on being the strongest and the smartest, the wolf pack cannot leave anything to chance. Any wolf pup born with abnormalities is immediately taken from its mother and left to die among the elements. This job is left to the Obea, a barren female wolf. This tale begins when the Obea takes a healthy pup with a splayed front paw bearing a spiral imprint and leaves it to die on an icy riverbank. The pup survives and is adopted by a bear mother who recently lost her cub. She names him Faolan. Faolon grows up strong and healthy. When he eventually meets up with the pack, the encounter will forever change the ways of the Wolves of the Beyond. In this new series, Kathryn Lasky builds on her revered "Guardians of Ga'Hoole" series. Though this story begins slowly, the tension steadily builds and readers will find themselves captivated midway through as they question how one wolf can survive without the pack to protect it. Even those who typically shy away from animal stories will be drawn in to the adventure, and many will forget that the story is about a wolf as Faolon's journey captivates. Book One of the "Wolves of Beyond" series. Reviewer: Jeanna Sciarrotta

From The Critics
Gr 4–7—A wolf pup is left to die by his pack because his malformed foot is considered bad luck. A grizzly bear, Thunderheart, whose cubs have been killed, rescues Faolan and nurtures him until her accidental death. As the young wolf continues on alone, he discovers "the Cave Before Time" with wall paintings portraying the history of the wolves and realizes that he must return to his own kind and learn their ways. This anthropomorphic fantasy has a number of the traditional characters found in these tales, such as the young outcast Faolan; the wise and solitary Gwynneth, the owl; and the powerfully maternal Thunderheart. The relationship between the wolf and the bear is particularly touching as they develop a strong and loving bond. After her death, the story meanders a bit as Faolan deciphers the message in the cave. As it ends, enough questions remain about his future to leave room for a sequel. Those who enjoy this genre will probably be intrigued enough by this young wolf to tag along on his journey.—Carol Schene, formerly at Taunton Public Schools, MA

    Good Read for Wolf Lovers

    I've got to say there aren't enough books about wolves out there. That alone made me buy this book. It was also by an author I'd read before, and it has gorgeous cover art. The story was interesting, and very enjoyable to read. Some things I found a little strange or confusing. I won't say what because that would give things away. But if you look past the oddness/confusion in some parts, it really is a good story and I cannot wait for the second book!

    Great book, looking forward to the next one!

    I absolutely loved this book from the start i opened it! I do have to say that i think reading kathryns first series, Guardians of Ga'Hoole will help you understadn the book better. It mentions a little about the Gaurdians of Ga'hoole and reading those might help explain things when your confused. I didnt read her first series and found it a tad confusing, but i kinda figured it out on my own. I would recamend this book, it is a good read and you wont want to put the book down once you start! I do have to say that i think the age group should be raised up to about ages 10 - 14 or 15. SOme of the language might be hard for an 8 year old.

    Go Kathryn!

    I love this book. Faolan was raised by a grizzly when he was taken from his mother by an Obea. Thunderheart, the grizzly, was killed in an earthquake. Faolan found the Cave Before Time. He learned about the clans and packs from an owl. He went to the Outermost and learned about the vicious, stupid wolves there. Parents, I'm not too old, so this book is appropiate for children. Kathryn Lasky, I need these books! Send me Shadow Wolf, and more!

    ALL WARRIORS FANS READ THIS NOTE!!! IMPORTANT!!!

    Please dont take over the wolves, clans. Ive watched you take over the magic theif books, ive watched you take over narnia. Ive seen you take over a lot of books. But please, dont take over the wolves. They belong here. YOU dont. And im a warriors fan too. I like wolves, i like cats. Theyre my two favorite animals. Im in a clan myself, in fact im a leader, but this just has to stop. Go somewhere where people dont read the books, so then people wont care. Let the packs of the wolves stay!

    Hevenly shadow

    The beautiful all white wolf with a gold heart on her cheast stairs in to the dim beautiy of the night. The stars make her eyes twinkle. *she looks around. Alert though still fasinated* "i might need to join a pack... its safer than being alone" i once again stair in the the deep sky.. it must go on for miles i presume... i think to myself *the heart on her cheast starts to dimly glow becoming stronger by the second. Poof she dissapers into nothing but air. Everything is silent. - Heavenly Shadow
