The beyond is going through a terrible famine and many animals are dying. And an insane wolf is leading thousands of wolves to their deaths by dancing for Skaarsgard (wolf god). Its up to Faolan and Edme to stop this chaos, bring order back to the beyond and resume civilization. The insane leaders name is the prophet and he thinks that this is helping the beyond. The prophet also wears an owls mask and is unknown to any other normal wolf. This book uses very detailed action and death. it almost makes me feel as if im in the book myself. ( )
