Customer Reviews

Incredible!

This book was amazing! It has so many more elements in it than the other two books. Also, you'll get every question answered that you ever asked in the other two books. If you loved the Harry Potter series, you'll like this just as much. But remember not to read this untill after you've finished the other two. I can't wait untill Wolf Wing comes to the US!

Amazing Book

Although Wolf Queen proves almost everything Claidi has previously learned to be lies, it's almost a relief. To learn the truth about Claidi's past life was a breath of fresh air. I enjoyed the whole series more after learning so much about her family. I was very dissapointed after briefly reading about a quarter of the book, but as I continued, I was pleased. As the story progressed, things fit into their proper place. Tanith Lee provides an addictive series with an attractive ending. The Claidi Journals series aren't books to be missed.

So surprising! I was on my toes...

After Wolf Tower I had been so excited for Wolf Star--when I purchased it I read it quickly, but something about it was a -little- more drab than the first. Enough to not really get me on my fingertips for Wolf Queen. (I'm not saying it wasn't good, just that it didn't make me say "Okay, where's the next one?" I could have waited and lived) but I'd gotten Wolf Queen before I'd finished Star, so I read it the day after....The book, at first, was good but not so enticing I couldn't put it down--but soon into it, I found it hard to stop reading until the end. It has more than enough surprises and answers to keep you engrossed (deeply!) and in the end, I was very satisfied--even if there was going to be no next book, I would have been fine. Though she leaves a little to your imagination (which I tend to like, depending on how MUCH the author will leave you)it still left me with a feeling of nourishment and satisfaction. (Though some small questions are still left.) It was another Tanith Lee triumph, and I was ecstatic in the end--it was wonderfully surprising and I love the characters each in their own way, constructed so entirely well that I could see them, hear them, feel what they felt and see in their eyes. They felt so close to me, especially Claidi. Everything she felt was so familiar to me--she reminds me, (frightningly closely) of ME. The closeness I feel to all of them is so absolute they could be standing beside me. Not all authors can make you feel like this.If I shed tears when I finished the last page, they were surely tears of happiness. :) I am on my toes for Wolf Wing.

...and a thrilling conclusion

I loved this book the best out of all three, because it contained the most surprise and sarcasm, my favorites. Claidi is back with all her spunk and determination, this time on a quest to find Argul. Only its not going to be as easy as it sounds. Not that it sounds easy. The conclusion to a great trilogy.

Best so far

This book is definitely the best so far in this series. Claidi really grows as a character, becoming more independent and confident as she learns more about herself. Claidi?s character is very likable, as she is very human and not disgustingly perfect as some writers make their characters. The fact that she does sometimes make mistakes and that she is sometimes afraid makes her more human and allows the reader to truly relate to her. I look forward to the next book ('Wolf Wing', I believe?to be released soon in the UK)!!! I highly recommend this book.
