“I held up the amulet and looked at it again. In the light of the dying fire, the eyes shone even brighter. They almost seemed to be smiling”
Wolf has returned to his village with the stolen spear, but his life is far from peaceful. Determined to become a shaman, he is gifted a special amulet which gives him seeing drams: mysterious visions of the future.
But Wolf’s rivalry with Rain takes a nasty turn and, when Moon is poisoned, the village rejects Wolf once again. In order to clear his name, Wolf leaves to guide a sickly Moon to find a cure – but it seems other dangers are following close behind.
Saviour Pirotta says that Wolf’s journey to other lands mirrors his own journey to become a writer. “Like Wolf, I felt inadequate and unaccepted in my land of birth, and had to go on a journey to prove myself.” Ironically, Book 3 will be “a journey to the island I left behind in real life”
“… just like the first, it’s a corker of a read. It’s an atmospheric and pacy late-Neolithic adventure,which feels a bit more meaty than junior fiction due to its suspenseful storyline.”
David Ortu’s “distinctive, eye-catching art really captures and enhances the mood of the story”
“… a great story for introducing younger readers not just to historical fiction, but also to the concepts of resilience and personal growth.”
“It ends leaving readers wanting more. I’m rather impatiently looking forward to part 3 now!”
