I love the mystery and wisdom of wolves. When I began researching wolves to write my own wolf stories, I discovered they had not only keen instincts but shocking intuition. I read stacks of nonfiction books on wolves and wolf stories, too. I toured a wolf conservation. One of the wolves, a white wolf, looked me straight in the eye and held me there. A wolf’s eyes do more than see you. Her communication was almost a prayer. I went home and wrote a short story about a white wolf—"Sky Wolf, A Fairy Tale." And then I wrote a wolf novel. I’m in love with wild wolf spirit.
A pack of wolves is terrorizing Paris. This is after the Hundred Years’ War, so historical fiction (and based on historical accounts).
Courtaud, the alpha male, is a mixed wolf-dog breed who leads his pack of wolves into the streets of Paris to survive on adventurous killing sprees. The loyalty of the pack, their family, all that aggressive protection is the star quality here, revealing the true spirit of wolf.
Courtaud stole my heart, no matter the savage attacks to survive or his wicked head-grip that he used masterfully to subdue his victims. Declared to be a monster and a wolf king, Courtaud falls in love with Silver, his wolf mate, with rich white fur. A love story to match Romeo and Juliet. I cried at the end.
The award-winning author of The Way of the Gladiator brings to life medieval Paris and the wolves who held it hostage, in a novel based on real events. Praised as "nature writing at its best," The Wolves of Paris takes readers to fifteenth-century France, a country so decimated by the Hundred Years' War that its people became prey for marauding wolf packs (Hartford Courant). With France split among the English, the Burgundians, and the forces of the weak Charles VII, a wolf-dog rises to ensure the existence of his pack by any means necessary . . . Courtaud begins his…
Reintroducing the wildlife into their natural habitat to flourish. Wolves! These gray wolves that are transported back into the wild changed my perspective about the beastly wolf vs. the gentle wolf who truly understands the wilderness within.

These six short stories by G.J. Fene showed me the soul of a wolf.
OMG, I’m not kidding. What a dive into the mystery, strength, and wisdom that wolves possess. Mythology and folklore play vital roles, motivating the characters to shun wolf beasts and wolf monsters, but also to search deeper into who the wolf is.
Wolf destiny, their soul purpose, is one of the most blessed parts of the stories. I couldn’t stop reading. Only 100 pages. Loved it!

In this stunning werewolf story, Reuben Golding struggles with “the gift” of transformation.
What happens to the soul of a human when the body transforms into a hungry, beastly werewolf? I enjoyed the mystical aspects of this fiction because Reuben awakens. The opening Christmas theme is a perfect background. I very much like that Reuben’s consciousness remained human. A very different take on the usual cursed werewolf.
Reuben is truly gifted. I admired how Anne Rice brings a beauty and a morality to the werewolf. Wolf spirit triumphs made this story five stars for me.

All the wolves in this pack in the Adirondacks gather together in an amazing adventure, aligned in a conscious spirit to fight their foe. Loyalty is a recurring theme, and that made it so human. I was amazed at the human intuitive spirituality thriving in these wolves.
This is wolf vs. the “shifter.” The wolf Silver understands human and wolf consciousness. I loved that dual intelligence she possessed. I discovered a sacredness woven within the story despite the brutality. A very rewarding story of how to become whole, even for a wolf.
