Synopsis

The companion to a New York Times Editors' Choice and Kids' Indie Next List Pick--a heart-pounding adventure starring a strong heroine who is battling the challenges of being a legend--perfect for reading aloud with the whole family.

"Exciting, fast-paced, and beautifully written! The perfect follow-up to the first book, and by the end, readers will be clamoring for more!" --Jennifer A. Nielsen, New York Times Bestselling Author of The False Prince 

In this Scottish medieval adventure, after attempting a daring rescue of her war-band family, Drest learns that Lord Faintree's traitorous uncle has claimed the castle for his own and convinced the knights that the lord has been slain . . . by her hand. Now with a hefty price on her head, Drest must find a way to escape treacherous knights, all the while proving to her father, the "Mad Wolf of the North," and her irrepressible band of brothers that she is destined for more than a life of running and hiding. Even if that means redefining what it means to be a warrior.

Includes a Bonus PDF with a glossary.

Goodreads review by Lesley

A fast-paced companion to The Mad Wolf’s Daughter! We pick up where the author last left us with Drest, Emerick, Tig...and without giving away any spoilers, as my copy is an ARC, resolves the story with a satisfying conclusion. Ahhh! Loved “seeing” Da & the brothers in action (after just hearing the......more
