I absolutely love Lasky's books, and I am (arguably) a grown woman. This one picks up where the last one left off, and young readers who read all of the Guardians books will get a special treat in this one (no spoilers, though - read the book!)The thing I like best about these books is how intensely character-driven they are. All of the characters - even Faolin, who in the hands of a less capable author might have been idealized or Mary Sue'd to the point of caricature - change over the course of time, and their growth drives the drama, the suspense, and the plot. This is awesome, because it becomes an opportunity for the parents of kids who like the books to talk about the themes of the book (leadership, trust, self-doubt, stereotypes, religion, spirituality, dogma, differences) on whatever level a particular kid is ready to discuss AND relate it to personal growth.Fast read for anyone over about 8 years old. Good vocabulary words through sixth grade. Subject matter can be experienced on many levels, making the book interesting for all ages. This is a good series for kids who already like the Erin Hunter and Brian Jacques books. One caveat is that the series raises some complicated social and religious questions. You may wish to discuss these issues with your child, especially if your viewpoint differs.
Amazing!!! Very descriptive and a truly intricate plot. Will there be another? Hopefully YES! I absolutely love Kathryn Lasky and I think she's one of the best authors ever.
All I can say is that this book was super awesome!!! I am kind of sad that this is the last book.
My daughter and I both read the entire series of these books quickly. Once we finished one book, we went right to the next one. We didn't want to put them down. Great Series if you want to get your kids interested in books and keep them reading!
We have a nine year old grand daughter that loves to read. She is in the third grade reading at the fifth grade level. Star wolf is sixth in the series. She has read all of them and loves them. The book is exciting and keeps her interest. If you want to increase your child's or grand child reading capabilities these books are a must. With each book you can see a gradual increase in reading capability.
Great undies! Fit loosely for comfort, and NO wedgies! I bought size 16 for our five foot, Eighty-Seven Pound Tween, and they've passed the test of what is comfortable and cool enough to wear with sports uniforms and cute clothes!
This book (like all of Kathryn lasky's books) was very inspiring, it shows survival, heartwarming, and shocking parts. I'm not going to be a spoiler though! I really like wolves but they have a bad reputation so no one writes about them (besides fear the big bad wolf) and finally someone wrote about them. I've read the whole series. And I give them all five stars. Thank you so much Katheren lasky!
I honestly think this series was one of Kathryn Lasky's masterpieces alongside with her Guardians of Ga'hoole, but after reading all of these books and I'm in the process of once again re-reading them and I still find them absolutely flawless, I stay up until late hours listening to the audiobooks of this series(Sadly one has not been released for this final book which saddens me) and it is a fun way to burn the hours away with this amazing series.I think Kathryn Lasky did a wonderful job with this series and this book but I hope she eventually revists the beyonds and the wolves as I think that they need more screentime than they did, this is my alltime favorite book and I shall never forget this book series ever.If you are deciding upon buying this book or the series, I greatly motivate you to, this book and the rest in the series are absolutely amazing.
