John Gwynne
International bestseller John Gwynne delivers a blockbuster epic fantasy inspired by Slavic mythology and packed with ancient magic, heroic sacrifice and thrilling adventure.
'A heartfelt tour de force by one of fantasy's greatest writers' Jay Kristoff, New York Times bestselling author of Empire of the Vampire
The Clans once lived freely, honouring their gods and traditions. Then the northern invaders unleashed a tide of blood and fire. Now the Clans are a conquered people.
Ivan cares not for wars or kings. His only concern is the safety of his family, especially his daughter Halia, whom he would protect with his life. Halia has been trapped in her own body since birth, yet at night she has dreams of running with wolves and speaking with fae creatures of the forest. Many believe her cursed, but Halia's awakening powers may be the only way she and her family can survive the coming storm.
For the wolves of war are stalking the horizon. Two princes have become mortal enemies, and an iron-toothed witch haunts the shadows. As mighty nations clash, Halia must master her strange magic to protect those she loves. To do so, she must accept a terrifying truth.
Sometimes, the only way through the darkness is to embrace it.

A heartfelt tour de force by one of fantasy's greatest writers
Gwynne's heart bleeds onto every page of this epic adventure. It is both tender and violent, savage and comforting. Easily my favourite read of the year
On the one hand, John Gwynne's Wolves of War is a thrilling tale of battles large and small with his trademark authenticity. Blood is shed, axes are swung, charges are made against the odds. On the other hand, it's the story of a loving family taking on life's challenges, their struggles enriched and complicated by the daughter, Halia, who has significant disabilities and hidden talents. The narrative is at turns tender, violent, imaginative, and exciting. And sometimes all of these things at once. If you've enjoyed Gwynne's other works, you're going to love this one. If you've not read him before, this book is a great place to start
Fast pacing, likable characters, gritty battles, and fantastical beasties. If the little girl Halia doesn't steal your heart, you might have left it in your other shirt pocket (Christopher Buehlman)
The Wolves of War is such a good read that I couldn't put it down. It's filled with creatures and gods from Eastern European folktales and mythology, but with John's unique twist, as well as the brave-hearted characters we have always loved in Gwynne's work. Raise your seax and shield . . . Gwynne has done it again. Reader beware: you will be captivated . . . head and heart!
Evocative, compelling, and full of magic and monsters, The Wolves of War is a novel that takes a firm hold of you and doesn't let go. And why should that be a surprise? With this historical fantasy, which so expertly weaves Slavic myth and legend with history, John Gwynne has crafted another captivating masterpiece. A masterpiece with a heart. For even when fighting against deadly witches and ferocious monsters, nothing is stronger than the bonds of family and the love that binds them together
