About this listen

6,000 years ago, the land is one dark forest. Its people are hunters and gatherers. They know every tree and herb and they know how to survive in a world steeped in enchantment, menace, and powerful magic. Until an ambitious and malignant force conjures up a demon; a demon so evil that it can be contained only in the body of a ferocious bear; a demon so hungry for death that it slays everything it sees; a demon with the potential to destroy the world. Only Torak and his wolf companion can save the world.©2004 Michelle Paver (P)2004 Orion Publishing Group Ltd.

Critic reviews

"The kind of story you dream of reading and all too rarely find. The vivid prose leaps off the page." ( The Times)

What can I say. This was a great book to listen to. Ian MacKellen's narration was enthralling, and the story was exciting and interesting.

My 7 year old daughter loved it and kept wanting to listen to more of it, and we, as parents, loved it to.

Fab!

Wonderful story

This book is the first in Michelle Paver's Chronicles Of Ancient Darkness series. Set in what is probably ice age Scandinavia, this novel begins the story of Torak, a boy who is abruptly left alone with the death of his father in a hostile environment where survival depends on wits and skill. And Torak's destiny is just beginning. He forms two friendships: Ren, a girl from a neighbouring tribe, and an orphan wolf cub who becomes both companion and guide. The story is told from the view points of all three characters, and from the opening sentence, the author displays a remarkable gift for story telling. The passages from Wolf's point of view are particularly well crafted. Listeners will come to care for Wolf as much as Torak and Ren. The book is dark and gripping with beautiful descriptions and is brought to life wonderfully by Ian McKellen, who lends his voice to the rest of the series too. So begins an unforgettable listening experience. Once you hear this, I guarantee you'll rush to get the others.
