Wolf Trials by Mila Young, Rosemary A. Johns
4.0
I was so incredibly excited about this book! I have to admit that Mila Young and I don't always have a click (personal preference), but I do usually have a click with Rosemary Johns. I was therefore also a little bit nervous, but the synopsis just sounded too good and there was no way I was gonna say no to the chance to read an arc for this book. So, yesterday morning I crossed all my fingers and started reading, hoping I was gonna love it.
This book is incredibly addictive and amazingly well paced. The writing styles and plot styles of both authors are mixing so incredibly well in this book. I'm sure that fans of either author are gonna love the result of their combined effort. The authors take their time to introduce the world and the characters to us, but they do so in a way that it's still interesting and exciting, especially because there are some nice action scenes in between the more emotional ones.
The emotional scenes were true gems however. All the emotions were vivid and raw and it was so easy to relate to the characters and what they were going through because I could really feel their emotions and how their hearts and souls were breaking at times. I love how all those characters therefore became more than fierce wolves trying to become Alphas. They all experienced hurt and loss and sacrifice and therefore also desire and longing and wishes.
On top of that I loved the politics in this book! Since we're spending time in both the mind of a Sun Wolf, a Moon Wolf and a Shadow Wolf we see all sides of the current situation and we understand why each of them wants and even needs to change the status quo. But, all the other players also come with their own agenda, wishes and goals and more than once ugly games are played to win in the end. I can't wait to see how this all continues, especially after that intense cliffhanger!
