A special message from Michelle Paver to readers at Amazon:
"When I was ten, I wanted to run wild in the forests of the Stone Age - and I wanted a wolf. I didn't get one; but I wasn't surprised a few decades later when he padded into the first of Torak's adventures. After all, what better guide could you have than a wolf? Some of my favourite parts of the stories are those told from Wolf's point of view - through his eyes and ears and nose. And they've been the easiest to write, too. Which may sound odd, but it's true.
So welcome to the Forest - and may your guardian run with you!"
Born in Malawi to a Belgian mother and a father who ran the tiny 'Nyasaland Times', Michelle Paver moved to the UK when she was three. She was brought up in Wimbledon and, following a Biochemistry Degree from Oxford, she became a partner in a big City law firm. She gave up the City to follow her long-held dream of becoming a writer. Successfully published as an adult author, the Chronicles of Ancient Darkness are her first - brilliant - books for children.
