This is a normal article. It's a book review, obviously.
Now, this is a review for a book that can make even the strongest reader become a bawling baby at the end. Yes, this book is The Sight by David Clement- Davies. The riveting story of Larka, a snow white she- wolf with a mysterious power known as the sight has captured my heart for years. This book has been my favorite read for at least two years, and I strongly recommend this rather chunky book for any anthropomorphic fantasy fan.
The novel tells the emotional tale of Larka and her pack as they struggle against a bitter and evil wolf named Morgra, who also possesses the Sight. Slowly discovering her magical abilities and about an ancient prophecy that binds her fate to that of all animals- even man. A human child, born on the same day as Larka and her brother Fell, is the counterbalance that is the key in defeating Morgra.
You will be wrapped up in the rich descriptive style of The Sight, and held fast until the tearful ending. Another good read is also by David Clement- Davies, and titled Fire Bringer.
The Sight is a story of self- sacrifice, perseverance, and familial warmth. Will Larka abolish Morgra’s grip upon the land of the Lera*? Read to find out!
(*Lera is the term used for the other animals, Varg is a wolf, and Herla is a deer.)
