Blacktail
€ 18.75
ISBN: 9781037417160
'A modern masterpiece. Blacktail will consume you' - Marcus Kliewer, bestselling author of We Used to Live Here
'Blacktail is as glorious as it is gruesome' - V. E. Schwab, Sunday Times bestselling author of Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil
A wolf embarks on a primal hunt for revenge. Blacktail is the highly-anticipated novel from Scott Hawkins, the critically acclaimed author of The Library at Mount Char.
Blacktail is a half-breed wolf, born to hunt. When he finds love beyond a garden wall, he dares to imagine a peaceful life - until men butcher his mate and unborn pups in a surgical act of cruelty. His grief ignites a rampage of torn throats and shattered bone, a slaughter so absolute it draws the gaze of an ancient feline witch. She sends him south to wake the sleeping Forest God and end the age of reason.
Fuelled by a rage that frightens Hell itself, Blacktail wages war against men and the beasts who dare defend them. From a gore-soaked wilderness to a burning confrontation with Heaven, Blacktail is a feral odyssey of vengeance.
The Forest God sleeps. But what will be the price of waking him?
