 ... fulfill the promise he made Fa. ---- Characters ---- Torak The story is mainly written in the third-person following Torak as he navigates through the wild terrains of the land to fulfill his quest. At 12 years old he is doubtful of his capabilities and finds his uncanny ability to communicate with Wolf a nuisance at first, and a blessing in the end. He underestimates his strength of mind, skill and capabilities which makes the reader endear to him as a human being without strengths and weaknesses; one such strength be...more

Premium Review Wolf Brother - Michelle Paver: Evocative and tense, Wolfbrother delievers a great adventure ... (1113 words)

It seems that good novels set in Prehistoric times are few and far between, especially for children. Jean Auel's Earth's Children series was the best of the genre in my eyes, but it is certainly not for younger readers. I was advised to pick up a copy of Michelle Paver's Wolfbrother when researching the questing child in children's literature and found myself engrossed almost immeadiately. It tells the story of a boy, Torak, living in Prehistoric Europe, after the first Ice Age, Torak is Just 12 years old, when a hideous and twisted bear attacks and fatally injures his father there is nothing Torak can do to save him. When his father reveals the ...  Read the complete review

The wolf brother was a beautiful surprise for me; having opted to read this book as part of my PGCE course, getting into the texts that are popular among young readers, I have found it engrossing as an adult, and recongise its appeal among the young. ---- Plot Outline ---- The story follows Torak who is 12 years old; the setting is 6000 years in the past in prehistoric Europe. He is a member of the Wolf Clan though he has only ever lived with his father, referred to as 'Fa'. Living in the forest off of the land and those within it, a horrific bear attack leaves Torak fatherless and wandering the forest bearing the burden of the promise he made to his ...  Read the complete review

Wolf brother by Michelle Paver When my friend recommended me read this I thought not to expect much but from the first page I was engrossed in a world of friends, family and fight. This book provided a world I could escape to with an interesting character list this book will not disappoint. Michelle Paver was born in central Africa but came to England as a child. After gaining a degree in Biochemistry from Oxford university she went on to become a partner in a city law firm but gave that up to write full time.

Premium Review Wolf Brother - A Story of Sacrifice (156 words)

Rating:

The story involves the troubling tale of Torak and his friends Renn and the adorable wolf cub expertly named Wolf. It begins with the death of Torak's father Fa by a demonic bear who's souls had been trapped inside its body by a demon called forth by a crippled wanderer. The story follows Torak as he tries to survive in a world set thousands of years before our time. He soon meets Renn - a proud and rather fierce warrior of the Raven clan. Soon Torak finds himself following his guide and pack-brother Wolf to the Mountain of the World spirit to ask for its help to defeat the bear. This story is filled with darkness and fear but it is also filled with joy and victory, true ...  Read the complete review
