The first thrilling WOLFBLOOD book - based on the smash-hit CBBC series!
WOLFBLOOD follows teenage Wolfbloods. Humans with the ability to transform into wolves at the full moon and at times when they're stressed. This mysterious race has lived among us for centuries. Wolfbloods have superhuman powers in the form of strength, speed, agility and heightened senses, and retain these even when in human form.
Fourteen-year-old Maddy lives with her mother and father high in the moors of the beautiful Northumbrian countryside. Her Wolfblood nature - and that of her parents - is her most closely guarded secret. She tries to live as normal a life as possible, but there is danger at every turn, with her best friend determined to track down the secret of the 'beasts of the moors'; and the pull of the full moon every month tempting the Wolfbloods. And on top of this, the trials and tribulations of ordinary teenage life . . . Then into her life steps a stranger, Rhydian, and one who she realises with shock is just like her . . .
Maddy and Rhydian must hide their secret from even their closest friends, or the Wolfblood race could be in deadly danger.
PULL OF THE MOON is the first in the series of four WOLFBLOOD books.
The second thrilling WOLFBLOOD book - based on the smash-hit CBBC series!
On a snowy night on Stoneybridge Moor, three wild wolves pursue another lone wolf, closing in on him. Meanwhile, Maddy and her parents take shelter in their underground 'den', away from the full moon and the danger of transforming into Wolfbloods in the open air. When the young wolf is chased desperately to their house, they realise with shock that it's Rhydian - back from the wild, where he's been in self-inflicted exile with his mother and the 'wild' pack.
Danger is hot on Rhydian's heels, though. The pack leader, Alric, is hunting him, claiming that he broke their rules, that he tried to win the wolves around to being open to human ways. Maddy and her family must, once again, try to keep Rhydian safe, and protect the Wolfblood secret from being exposed. Things are complicated, though, with the arrival of another young wild Wolfblood - unkempt, feisty Jana, who poses a threat to Maddy in more ways than one . . .
