Kaala's choices may affect not only her pack, but the survival of all wolfkind. Humans?and their relationship to the world around them?are changing. Then Kaala learns that much more than the Wide Valley is at stake. If they fail, every wolf and human in the valley will die. If they succeed, Kaala will finally prove herself worthy of her pack. In part two of The Wolf Chronicles, Kaala and the human girl she has befriended must find a way for the wolves and humans of the valley to live in harmony. Now, responsibility for the consequences rests with her. But her world is turned upside down when she rescues a human girl from drowning. In Promise of the Wolves, author Dorothy Hearst gives the reader a deep look at wolf life from the actual source - the entire novel is narrated from the perspective of Kaala. An outcast after her mother is exiled, Kaala struggles to earn her place in her pack. She shattered the rules of the valley, exposing the lies hidden beneath. Set 14,000 years ago in what is now Southern Europe,Promise of the Wolvesis told from the point of view of Kaala, a young wolf born of a forbidden, mixed-blood litter. When she was little more than a pup, Kaala, born of mixed blood and nearly killed for it, found herself irresistibly drawn to the forbidden humans. The rules of the Wide Valley wolves were clear: Never consort with humans never kill a human unprovoked never allow a mixed-blood wolf to live. The second wolf-narrated novel in The Wolf Chronicles brings wolves and humans together?for better or for worse.ġ4,000 years ago, wolves and humans shared a destiny.

A gripping adventure set in ancient times.
