Blumwald is a town overshadowed by an ancient curse: in a sinister
castle in the depths of the wild wood lives a monstrous Witch. Once
a generation, she comes to claim a companion to return with her –
never to be seen again. Now that time is drawing near once more...
Mina, daughter of the duke, is grieving and lonely. She has lost
all hope of any future for herself in Blumwald. So when the Witch
demands her next companion, Mina offers herself up – though she
has no idea what fate awaits her. Stranded with her darkly alluring
captor, the mystery of what happened to the previous companions
draws Mina into the heart of a terrifying secret that could save
her life, or end it.

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...
