What if it was every day?
This is the story of Sam Green, who really, really, really loves birthdays. He loves the special breakfasts in bed. The presents. The themed parties. Blowing out the candles on his cake. Everything.
He is so excited about his 11th birthday, in fact, that he wishes it was his birthday every day.
So, at first, it’s quite exciting when his birthday happens again the next morning. And again. And again. And again…
But it’s not long before things start to go wrong. Soon, disaster strikes, threatening something Sam loves even more than birthdays.
Sometimes you have to be careful what you wish for…

Grand finale to the prize-winning adventure series that's changed
the lives of millions of readers. Breathtaking world-building on an
epic scale. Pure escapism at its best. It is early spring, a
turbulent, perilous time of sudden storms, frozen river fractures
and drifting ice. Fleeing from a demon intent on devouring his
souls, Wolf is swept out to Sea far from the Forest and his pack.
The ocean too teems with danger: sea wolves, sharks and hunters of
the deep, and the demon is gaining ground. Torak and Renn must race
to save their pack-brother, battling the harsh, icy waves and
merciless torrents. If they can't find Wolf in time, the bond
between them will be severed for ever... Run wild with Wolf Brother
for the last time in a Stone Age world we all want to be part of,
with three-million-copy-selling author Michelle Paver, Creator of
Legends. Read WOLFBANE as a standalone adventure or as part of the
well-loved series. 'Can easily be read as a standalone novel, so
skilful is the storytelling... Paver powerfully presents a world
view that's magical but never primitive' Financial Times on Skin
Taker 'Meticulously researched, atmospheric [...] and relentless...
