A
teen shapeshifter, a werewolf, and the madman who plans to destroy them
on All Hallows' Eve. Celia and the Wolf. A 5-star read for teens 11yo
and up.
Winner, 2014 Award for Best Juvenile Fiction from Bookstore Without Borders.
"This
is the kind of book that you can’t stop reading. When you reach the
end, you close the book, sit back with a grin and say, ‘THAT was a great
adventure.’"
Excerpt:
“My
sister is not yet a werewolf. But she will be five days from now. The
last night of this full moon is also All Hallow's Eve and the night of
her twelfth birthday. The night she will change for the first time. And then they will have to kill her. They will have no choice.”
“Have to? What do you mean?”
He shook his head. “Celia, remember that a loup-garou is completely
the wolf. Eh bien. When the moon rises that, Lilette will become the wolf. Then they will let her go.”
“That’s good, isn’t it?”
“Non,
that is terrible. There will be no one there to guide her first
change, or protect her. The man who holds her calls himself The
Guardian. But he is a fiend! He will make certain Lilette is hungry when
he lets her go. As hungry as only a wolf can get. With many small
animals and people around to tempt her. The villagers
will have weapons to ‘protect’ themselves.”
Remy’s eyes held mine fast. I sucked in a hard breath, suddenly
realizing what he was saying. I could almost picture it in my mind.
“Tell me, Celia, what do you expect those people with weapons will do when they see a girl become a wild, scared, hungry
wolf?”
