Wayward Wulves Beware

Wayward Wulves Beware, first in Eye of the Wulf Series, weaves Celtic myth and mountain lore into a tartan of greed and treachery, courage and sacrifice. Wulves and Faer Ones, their faerie allies, defend Eden-like Lisnafaer against the corruption wrought by human necromancers.

From on high, Sky-Wulf warns the birth of Anell and Akir's eagerly awaited cubs portends imminent danger. Indeed, sons Kalar and Sonsie's arrival throws their pack--and Lisnafaer--into turmoil. Kalar strives to become a hunter, a boar killer like Akir. But Sonsie, aspiring to be a great singer wulf, pursues the Faer Ones' song.

Thwarted efforts to guard the rebellious cubs cause Anell and Akir to clash. Though Akir forbids contact with all Faer Ones, he can't prevent their shadowing his sons. Encounters with chancy supernatural beings intensify Kalar and Sonsie's dangerous secret life.

When the shape-shifting Lady and Lord of Lisnafaer lure the half-yearling brothers into the Cavern Perilous, their worst fears are confirmed. The wulves' destiny is mortal combat with two banished beasts held captive in the Otherworld.

But are the cubs the cure - or the cause? And what connects the dire beasts to blade- wielding human cutters?

One answer lies in gloom-haunted Scanlon Hollow. Two cutter brothers, lusting for the Faer Ones' golden apples, perform grisly rites to conjure the demon cat Scrag Tail. If they succeed, Terror Wulf follows.

Cutters seek to exile the Faer Ones, take their forests, exterminate the wulves, and seize the deer for sport--the end of the Balance Green. Kalar and Sonsie must choose. Abandon their pack. Accept their destiny--and possible death. Or renounce their heroic calling. Assume their lot as marked wulves--certain death if the cutters get their way.

Kalar and Sonsie's adventures continue in the second Eye of the Wulf Series.

About the Author
Passmore, L. N.: - As soon as she could walk, L. N. Passmore toddled into the sea. At age six she got lost in the woods, perfect for communing with tree spirits and departed ancestors. No wonder living in the Appalachians made forested mountains--filled with secret music and light-her muse. Beloved cats, dogs, and a Morgan-quarter horse became wise teachers. L. N. has lived, worked, and traveled all over USA: from the Atlantic Coast to Alaska, the Navajo Nation in Arizona, and Appalachia--north and south, urban and rural; in the UK: from John o' Groats to Land's End. When first sighting the Highlands, she found a home new to her eyes but not her soul. Exploring Skye, Fingal's cave on Staffa, Mull, and Iona, where the veil between worlds is thin, awakened her Irish heritage and revealed the truth of Old Powers. Other adventures include walking from the rim of the Grand Canyon down the Kaibab Trail to the Colorado River and back up the Bright Angel Trail, camping overnight in the Canyon; earning an open water SCUBA license; and taking an overnight horseback ride in the mountains of Medicine Bow National Forest, WY.

Read her "Mayhem with a Beer Chaser," and "How Bright Eye Became Sky-Wulf," in Anthology 2016, Covington Writers Group, available through amazon.com.
