Book Review: Waer


        This book intrigued me from the start and I wasn’t disappointed. I was expecting to read a story like many others I had read -the big scary wolf saving the day stories- but I was pleasantly surprised by the different turn this book took.

While Lowell is teaching his younger brother how to change into a wolf he comes across a girl (Lycaea) washed up on the riverbank next to his house. Lowell can smell that she is alive and also another waer nearby, so trusting his inner instincts he hides her in at his family home and nurse her back from the brink of death. As Lycaea’s strength grows the family start to have more questions. Where did she come from? Why was she so badly injured? My surprise with this book was the way the author betrayed waer… let’s just say they’re not your typical out of control, hiding in the woods living in caves type of waer

(which can also make a fantastic book but this one was a different kind of fantastic)
