Languages : en
Pages : 321
Book Description
The enchanting tale of a wolf who forms an unlikely alliance with Baba Yaga to save the forest from a wicked tsar. "Karah Sutton has crafted a vivid and rollicking adventure that proves a wolf doesn't have to be big or bad to win the day!" --Rosanne Parry, New York Times bestselling author of A Wolf Called Wander Since she was a pup, Zima has been taught to fear humans--especially witches--but when her family is threatened, she has no choice but to seek help from the witch Baba Yaga. Baba Yaga never does magic for free, but it just so happens that she needs a wolf's keen nose for a secret plan she's brewing . . . Before Zima knows what's happening, the witch has cast a switching spell and run off into the woods, while Zima is left behind in Baba Yaga's hut--and Baba Yaga's body! Meanwhile, a young village girl named Nadya is also seeking the witch's help, and when she meets Zima (in Baba Yaga's form), they discover that they face a common enemy. With danger closing in, Zima must unite the wolves, the witches and the villagers against an evil that threatens them all. Infused with Russian folklore and brought vividly to life in Pauliina Hannuniemi's gorgeous illustrations, Karah Sutton's magical debut is a celebration of wolves and witches, and the importance of finding common ground with our so-called enemies.

Wolf Tales 10

Languages : en
Pages : 182
Book Description
Book 10 in the groundbreaking Wolf Tales series that captivated the world of erotic romance! “Definitely not for the timid reader. . . . Oh, to be Chanku!” —Anne McCaffrey Like all Chanku, Adam Wolf is a loving and sensual creature, and the only thing he values more than his connection to the pack is the deep and eternal bond he shares with his life mate. When she’s taken from him in a tragic accident, Adam is wracked by despair—a despair that quickly turns to rage when he realizes her death was caused by the incompetence of the selfish goddess Liana, who was meant to watch over them. Liana reveled in the power and freedom that came with being a goddess, but her desires led to her abusing her newfound powers of sensuality and seduction and ignoring the needs of the pack. When her carelessness leads to a loss of life she should have prevented, the punishment is swift and severe—she’s demoted to life as a mortal, and sent to live among the very pack the dead woman came from. With no choice but to adjust to her new role, Liana surrenders to an onslaught of exquisite sexual indulgence, a test to see if she can she fit in and learn to give as good as she gets. And Adam, torn between his grief for his lost mate and his Chanku duty to Liana, will be forced to reexamine his ideas of belonging and love, even as Liana will have to discover whether, when faced with the ultimate sacrifice, she will make the right choice . . . Praise for Kate Douglas’s Wolf Tales Series: “A searing erotic tale that will send your senses reeling.” —Cheyenne McCray “Deliciously erotic, lushly romantic . . . explores the hot edge of passion!” —Angela Knight “Heroines whom we love for their strength . . . heroes we love for their sensitivity.” —Romantic Times

Never Cry Wolf
Author: Farley Mowat
Publisher: McClelland & Stewart
ISBN: 1551991918
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
EYE TO EYE WITH DEATH: THE WOLF PROJECT Hordes of bloodthirsty wolves are slaughtering the arctic caribou, and the government's Wildlife Service assigns naturalist Farley Mowat to investigate. Mowat is dropped alone onto the frozen tundra, where he begins his mission to live among the howling wolf packs and study their ways. Contact with his quarry comes quickly, and Mowat discovers not a den of marauding killers but a courageous family of skillful providers and devoted protectors of their young. As Mowat comes closer to the wolf world, he comes to fear with them the onslaught of bounty hunters and government exterminators out to erase the noble wolf community from the Arctic. Never Cry Wolf is one of the brilliant narratives on the myth and magic of wild wolves and man's true place among the creatures of nature. "We have doomed the wolf not for what it is, but for what we deliberately and mistakenly perceive it to be — the mythologized epitome of a savage, ruthless killer — which is, in reality, no more than the reflected image of ourself." — From the new Preface

Book Description
Much has changed for the Chanku. For so long they kept their shapeshifting ability secret, but now they have assimilated into the human world in ways they never once thought possible. As the daughter of Anton Cheval (the universally acknowledged leader of the Chanku Nation) and CEO of Cheval International, Lily Cheval chooses to live alone in San Francisco, headquarters of the pack's business interests. A series of murders near both the pack compound in Montana and the San Francisco Bay Area leave her wary and worried for her fellow Chanku. The bodies of human women are turning up-women raped by men, but killed by wolves. Aldo Xenakis, a charismatic cult leader, is blaming the Chanku, inciting fear among residents throughout the west. When Lily meets his son, Sebastian, their connection is intense and immediate, yet tempered by the darkness she senses in him-he is a powerful wizard who uses magic to shift into wolf form, but is he the killer? Driven by passion, Sebastian and Lily come together in sensual ecstasy, a joining that leaves Lily shaken but utterly alive. Could Sebastian be the man she's been waiting for, or is he her worst enemy? This book contains adult content.
