About this ebook
A boy. A wolf. A legend for all time. The first book in the internationally bestselling Chronicles of Ancient Darkness series by renowned author Michelle Paver.
Thousands of years ago, a powerful and malevolent force conjured a demon: a demon so evil that it could only be contained in the body of a ferocious bear, a demon determined to destroy the world. Only one boy can stop it ...
Twelve-year-old Torak sees his father murdered by the bear. With his dying breath, he asks his son to make him a promise. Alone, wounded, terrified and on the run, Torak must now lead the bear to the Mountain of the World Spirit - a mountain that no one has ever found before. But can Torak keep his promise?
A terrifying quest commences in a world of wolves, tree spirits and Hidden People, a world in which trusting a friend means risking your life.
Audio edition also available, read by Sir Ian McKellen.
Latest sequels Oath Taker and Viper's Daughter published in 2020-21.

I've read the whole series of these and I thought they were amazing. It really makes you realize what life was like thousands of year's ago, but it has a little catch which gets you hooked and you don't want to put the book down. If anyone asked me I'd say read it....Now.

These were made by frustrated adults who for some reason picked up a children's book. I read this at around 15 and devoured the sequels
