Wolf in Night

If you like fantasy books or if you don't like fantasy books it doesn't matter because you'll love this book (and its series). Tara Harper has written an incredible fast-paced, thoughtful, action, adventure story. The characters are believable; you will at times love and hate them. A genuinely interesting setting as well as a very exciting story..... Good reading! I am a long time mystery book reader, but this book has now changed my reading direction towards fantasy/ sci fi. I found this book so enjoyable that I've now almost completed all of Ms. Harper's books.

I picked this book at the library in a scramble to get a pile before the Labor Day closings. I am usually a speed reader and was initially uncomfortable with the new vocabulary and settings. I kept vowing to put it away and stop wasting my time on a confusing tale of human/wolf relations. Something niggled at my mind and I finally got into the book with a hunger. Now, after having read the atomic action, I plan to obtain the series. I wish I had found "Wolfwalker' first so I didn't waste so much time vacillating whether to complete it! I am a national park ranger and Tara knows of which she speaks.

Wolf in Night is a rapid pace action adventure sci fi novel set in a near wilderness civilization on a lost and forgotten planet. Its new central character is a woman named Nori who possesses a psychic bond to wolves that gives her extraordinary sensory advantages over would be predators, both human and animal. I enjoyed how the main story unfolded from the foreshadowing in the beginning chapters and how its threads led to the creation of an intriguing new reluctant hero Nori for this series. Several old and new mysteries about the world are solved along the way. Brilliant but evil characters lurk at every corner. Fast paced action and a thread of philosophy to boot. I highly recommend this book.

I would like to begin by saying that the Wolfwalker books by Tara K Harper have always been, and will continue to be my all time favorite series. This newest edition does not dissapoint! What I find especially intriguing and memorable about Harper's novels are the characters. Even more so than most accomplished writers, she manages to portray the human spirit and emotional development of her characters in a realistic and touching way. To top that off, her stories are filled with action and intrigue that keeps you turning the pages! As always, I rushed out at bought this long-waited-for novel the day it was released and stayed up all night to finish it. Norianna's story finds a worthy place in this series and it will find a place in your heart as well. I would highly recommend this book to anyone, but please read the entire series! You won't regret it.

I have read all of her books and have been waiting the release of this book in the continuance of the tale caught in the family of Ember Dione. I am already certain this book will be wonderful for she has never dissappointed me thus far! A must read!!
