The Claidi Journals(book 3)

Title: Wolf Queen

Author: Tanith Lee

The Plot

Claidi has set off in the Star-ship to find Argul and the Hulta. When Claidi finds the Hulta they aren’t exactly happy to see her. Claidi learns that Argul has left the Hulta and that she is no longer welcome there. Claidi sets off again to find Argul. But after the Star-ship crashes,  Claidi is left on her own to continue her journey.

In a town called Panther’s Halt, Claidi finally finds Argul. However Argul doesn’t seem so keen on Claidi. She follows him to a place called Ice Walk. There,  Claidi meets a girl named Winter Raven who claims she is from the Raven Tower which was destroyed in the Tower War.  Winter Raven takes Claidi first to a town called Chylomba. On the way to Chylomba Claidi learns that she had not been following Argul but in fact another life like doll.  After they reach Chylomba, Winter Raven takes Claidi to the Raven Tower where Claidi learns about her  parents and Argul finds her.  Claidi and Argul are set to be married by the Raven Tower but this was not how Claidi and Argul wanted to be married – Everything over done and everyone overdressed, surrounded by manipulative strangers! Will Claidi and Argul make another daring escape or will they be stuck at the Raven Tower forever?

Review

Wolf Queen is a fantastic book!  I have read it 4 times. Tanith Lee did an excellent job writing this book.  She packed action, mystery, romance, and sci-fi together into an awesome book.  Tanith Lee could have added in some more suspense and maybe a bit more detail, but other than that it was(is)an awesome book!

Coming up next: The Twilight saga by Stephenie Meyer
