WHAT IS THE PROMISE OF THE WOLF?
NEVER CONSORT WITH HUMANS.
NEVER KILL A HUMAN UNPROVOKED. NEVER ALLOW
A MIXED-BLOOD WOLF TO LIVE. At least that's what the
wolves of the Wide Valley believe. Until a young wolf dares
to break the rules -- and forever alters the relationship
between wolves and the humans who share their world. This
is the story of such a wolf. Born of a forbidden mixed-blood
litter and an outcast after her mother is banished, Kaala is
determined to earn a place in the Swift River pack. But her
world is turned upside down when she saves a human girl from
drowning. Risking expulsion from their pack and exile from
the Wide Valley, Kaala and her young packmates begin to hunt
with the humans and thus discover the long-hidden bond
between the two clans. But when war between wolves and
humans threatens, Kaala learns the lies behind the wolf 's
promise. Lies that force her to choose between safety for
herself and her friends and the survival of her pack -- and
perhaps of all wolf- and humankind. Set 14,000 years ago,
Promise of the Wolves takes us to a land where time
is counted in phases of the moon, distance is measured in
wolflengths, and direction by the scent of the nearest
trail. Years of research into the world of wolves combines
with mythical tale-telling to present a fantastical
adventure set in a world filled with lore.
