Book Description
Abandoned at birth. Raised by lynxes. Gifted with magical powers.
While evil closes in, Ren defends her forest. Flanked by wolves and lynxes, she battles monsters and protects those who live among the twisted black trees. Her power is legendary. Gods bow before her and water nymphs clasp webbed fingers above the river. Ren is far more than just a seventeen-year-old girl.
She is the Queen of the Forest.
Meanwhile, Lukasz Smoków arrives in the village beside Ren’s forest. A dragon-slayer by trade, Lukasz and his older brother are the last survivors of a once-great culture. But now his brother has gone missing and Lukasz has tracked him to the world they abandoned long ago: Ren’s forest. Haunted by memory and wracked with guilt, Lukasz couldn’t care less about the darkening woods or their frightening Queen.
Because Lukasz will do anything to get his brother back. Anything.
When his quest leads to disaster, Lukasz finds an unlikely ally in Ren. Together, they encounter an evil that could consume everything: human, beast, and monster. While Lukasz refuses to give up on his brother, Ren faces a battle that will push her beyond her forest, a fight that will test her strength, and an enemy that will threaten her life, her family, and worst of all, the only world she’s ever known…
Inspired by Polish folklore, Don’t Call the Wolf is the story of monstrosity, humanity, and one wild Queen.
