This is a fantastic, hard world with wolves, shifters and humans. The wolves have a strong culture based on beliefs and rules, one of which is don't have anything to do with shifters. The h brings home the H, he's injured and worse, he's a shifter. She's the runt of the pack and as he identifies as human, he's horrified by them and her, at first. The writing is fantastic, we feel and see their connection develop amid this strong culture where they are both uncomfortable with the others dual...

I enjoyed a lot about this book. The premise is more my idea of shifter lore, I like the three best developed characters (only one being a lead character). I liked the use of the old language. I liked that in quite a few passages that showed me the author is going to be one of the best. My problem was the unevenness if the writing itself especially 'voicing' I imagine that will even out so will recommend and pick up the second. )

I finished this and...

There is not another paranormal shifter book like this one (or until the author releases the sequel, anyway). While there is a plot (a good one, with danger!), a romance (also a good one, with great sex scenes that are there because they make sense in the story and not because there were a few blank pages to fill), and every indication that a happily-ever-after will occur, these serve as a backdrop to the main event -- an exploration of the psychology of humans who are also beasts. Or maybe...
