The Wolf Hunt - first US edition

by Gillian Bradshaw

Based on a 12th Century "lay" (or troubadour romance) by Marie de France, the story presents a fantastical premise within a gripping realistic context and ponders the very human notions of honor, betrayal, identity and longing. The shape-shifting abilities of the hero, Breton huntsman-knight Tiarnan, is treated like any addiction; he does it for the rush, the thrill of heightened sensory awareness. And, like most addictions, he's tried and failed to stop. But his secret passion has unexpected consequences for his silly and scheming new bride, her ambitious former suitor and the fate of his entire estate and the people who love and respect him.
