Description Toward Books Lone Wolf (Wolves of the Beyond #1)
I was really surprised that I didn't like this one. I had enjoyed what I had read of Lasky's Ga'hoole series, and I was expecting this to be comparable in quality to that. There were two main issues I had with this book. The first one is that it is horribly dull. The beginning was very exciting, but the first two parts were uninteresting. It didn't help that the main character doesn't have that much of a personality. It started to pick up around the end, but it was too little too late for me. The other issue I have is that the way the society of wolves was portrayed. It irked me to no end that Clans of wolves were considered "noble" as opposed to the cannibals living on the outskirts. Killing innocent wolf pups in the name of genetic purity is on the same level as killing one of your own to eat, in my opinion. I was expecting somewhat of a challenge to be made against their highly unethical practices. I would have liked this book a whole lot better if we had at least been given that. I suppose this might be corrected future installments, but why bother? This promised to be an exciting animal fantasy, but instead I found myself bored and irritated beyond belief by the end of the novel. Honestly, I'd recommend skipping this one and picking up something like Guardians of Ga'hoole or Warriors instead.Declare About Books Lone Wolf (Wolves of the Beyond #1)

Personally, it wasn't that interesting to me. It doesn't have that much... Excitement, a hook to catch me on. I mean, the main thing I disliked though was the blandness of the main character.The main character was too... How should I put this? Too overpowered. I get it's fictional, but this is based on survival and that kind of stuff, right? Then wolves should not be able to walk on two legs, be able to jump and pull down a cougar, and jump over a huge wall of fire. Like, seriously. If thatThis book is of a series of 4 books with the mystifying adventures of a young wolf pup named Foalan. I am currently reading the 2nd book: Watch Wolf. Growing up i've had an undying passion for wolves, i raised two wolf pups, Megan and Shiba, of which I found as orphans and decided to adopt them. My friend recommended this book to me as she noticed i am obsessed with wolves. This book tells of a wolf pup who was exiled from his pack due to being "diffirent" Seperated from his pack and parents, he

Being a fan of animal fantasies, I decided to buy this quick read at my school book fair. Not worth the ten dollars. At least, not yet.This book starts off fairly amazing, with creative ranks and how the Packs work. I did realize how large the writing font was, and it slightly worried me. But I'm used to reading short books, like Warriors.Anyway, the writer did seem to know what she was talking about. Being a wolf lover myself, I know tons of facts about these beautiful creatures. If I was about
The first half was good but it got very boring and no plot I'm not reading the rest of the series
I want to start off by saying that I generally love Kathryn Lasky's books- I read all but a couple of the Guardians of Ga'Hoole series and all of her additions to the Royal Diaries series and thought they were fantastic. This book however was surprisingly dull. I wanted so much to like this book and, it being a kind of "kid's book" thought I would finish it in about a day when it actually took me about 3-4 days. I had to force myself to pick it up and slog through it- working diligently just to
