Responding to a call for help from the wolves of Long Lake Pack, Daine and her mentor, Numair, travel to Dunlath Valley, where they discover an ecological catastrophe in the making. When they try to intervene on the wolves’ behalf, they encounter only derision from the Dunlath court.

Working on their own to uncover the reasons for destruction, Daine and Numair soon uncover a web of plots that threaten the kingdom itself. Numair must return to court to warn the king—leaving Daine, the wolves, and her expanding group of animal allies to hold off disaster until his return. But even Daine’s growing Wild Magic may not be enough to protect her from the dangers of Dunlath Valley.

Brimming with adventure, centered on a daring young woman who will stop at nothing to protect her animal friends, Wolf Speaker represents Tamora Pierce at the top of her form.
