A good adventure story which is located in an unusual geographical setting. I expect many readers will not have heard of the Sami people before reading this book. Having visited Norway, the book brought back a memorable holiday with wild, rugged landscapes.
Wolf Cry explores the relationship between various ethnic groups and a stranger from afar who happens to be a black man. He becomes a central character in the plot. After reading the book it should help young people for whom it is intended to think about the stereotyping of races and individuals.
The adventure story element moves along at an exciting pace. The book deserves reading to the end with its challenging conclusion.

A new children's book (that I was lucky to get a proof of) by the author of the Cat Royal series and the Companion's Quartet. This time Julia Golding takes us back to Viking Times, and the story of Freydis and her brother Toki, who are awaiting their father's return. However, pirate lord Sulke raids their home, and Toki and the villagers are kidnapped, leaving an injured Fraydis behind.
Meanwhile her father is returning, with a slave in tow for Theydis known as 'the blue man,' Enno. This story is about love , family, sacrifice and friendship, and will know doubt be eagerly read by fans of Golding's work. Personally I prefer Cat from the Cat Royal books, but this was still a very enjoyable read.

Good writing but very very poor research
Julia Golding is a competent, even good writer, but that does not compensate for her obvious ignorance about the culture and places she writes about in this book. Read more
