Wolf Brother by Michelle Paver

Wolf Brother is a great book for everyone, especially for 12-14 year olds.  It is set in 4000 B.C. in the New Stone Age in Finland. Once you start it, you won't be able to put it down.  The story is written from two perspectives, Wolf's and Torak's. torak is twelve and is gifted with the ability to speak with wolves. He is an excellent hunter, one of the best in the forest.  He is cunning, quiet and clever.  He is also the listener. Wolf is shy and bravewhen he wants to be, and can speak to Torak. He doesn't pronounce his words right so like big-red-that-bites-hot is a fire. These are fun to decipher. Renn is another character who comes later in the book.  She is bold, brave and stubborn.  She is also a skilled archer. The action in this story is about a bear who is the stongest demon in the forest.  Someone called the crippled wanderer trapped an element demon in the poor bear and Torak is the only one who can stop it.  I would give this book a 10/10 because it is one of my best reads so far. Others in the series are Spirit Walker, Soul Eater, Outcast, Oath Breaker and Ghost Hunter.
