Open the door and you never know what will wander in—a pale manstealing lamplight, a glittering Star, or a pack of baying hounds andtheir fearsome horned master. Join Timothy James, Sarah and Jessica asthey battle an ancient one-eyed Evil with the help of a mysterious oldwoman and a magical wolf. When the Wild Hunt comes riding, the onlyhope of escape is to face your fears and become…wolfproof."
"…a superbly crafted entertainment that will engage the attentionof children from beginning to end. "Wolfproof" is especiallyrecommended for school and community library Science Fiction &Fantasy collections."
“Myths come to life, storms rise, evil lurks, hope swells, courage triumphs— Wolfproof weaves a wonderful coming-of-age story. One has only to think of Madeleine L’Engle’s Charles Wallace and Meg Murray, and C.S.Lewis’ Lucy, Edmund, Peter, and Susan to understand the strange world and the frightening, formidable battle in which Timothy James, Sarah and Jessica find themselves.”
