Over a decade ago, Michelle Paver completed the last volume in her wildly popular Wolf Brother series. Set in the Stone Age, featuring the adventures of Torak and his companions Renn and Wolf and their quest to destroy the Soul Eaters, the books had sold 3 million copies globally – a million of those in the UK. Michelle won the Guardian Children’s Fiction Prize for the last book in the series, 2009’s Ghost Hunter. Planned as a six-book series, the story was complete.
And now, just as it’s announced that the TV and film rights to Wolf Brother have been bought by Kindle Entertainment, the much-loved characters from the original Chronicles of Ancient Darkness are back in book form. Viper’s Daughter is the first in a new three-book Wolf Brother continuation series that takes Torak, Renn and Wolf away from the forest to face the perils of the frozen far north in a thrilling new adventure.
