Here is a credible story about a black wolf, Fell, who has been rejected by his pack, wandering alone in the forest, and refusing to use his gift of reading the minds of others. This adventure is very believable as we read about the thoughts of animals and their human connection. As a very young child Alina is saved by Fell and when she grows up she is labeled as a changeling which refers to a child left by fairies. She is an outcast and unfairly treated by the family that takes her in to their home. She seeks her destiny and tries to stay away from those who mean harm. Alina and Fell share a common thread of loneliness and uncertainty about their fuure.
David Clement-Davies wrote Fell five years after The Sight, which is a prequel of this book but Fell does stand on its own. The setting is Transylvania and and there is a connection with another famous character from this region. Read this if you like intricate and adventurous stories about animals interwoven with humans.
