Jude-broken, rebuilt, fueled by anger and a sense of powerlessness-has never recovered from watching her adoptive Faerie father murder her parents. YA)īlack is back with another dark tale of Faerie, this one set in Faerie and launching a new trilogy. Despite these shortcomings, the mysteries of Bryn’s identity should keep readers hooked, and there’s plenty to discuss in terms of gender roles and Pack politics. The pacing is very slow at the beginning, with most of the important action crammed into the last 75 pages. There are some holes in Bryn’s narration of her own supernatural, wolfish abilities, which makes it difficult to understand how she relates to the rest of the pack. Bryn and Chase bond almost instantly, and Bryn is sure that Chase holds the key to identifying the Were who killed her parents. Then Bryn discovers an important Pack secret: They’re hiding Chase, a boy her age who survived a usually lethal werewolf bite and was turned into a werewolf. Though she doesn’t change into a wolf as her peers do, she is still subject to the Pack’s rules of dominance and submission. The werewolves, or Weres, who rescued her raised her as their own. Born human, she lost her parents in a werewolf attack when she was four.
