Wolf Soldier by James R. Hannibal

4.0

I didn’t quite know what t expect when I picked up Wolf Soldier. To be honest, I wasn’t sure if I would like it. However, I did like it! I think what keeps me from absolutely loving this book is that I found the world building a little confusing and there were just a few things I didn’t understand. There are things that are explained throughout the book, but they weren’t explained in full. I do know that based on the Preface and the Author’s Note that it is based on a video game, and set in that world.

I did like that it had some unique elements in the story, while still being a quest story. I also liked getting to know the characters and the world that it is set in. I also enjoyed learning about the magic system and I hope we learn a bit more about how it works in the next book.

Overall, Wolf Soldier was a good fantasy novel about good vs. evil. I think it is also a perfect book to read as a bridge between the Chronicles of Narnia and The Lord of the Rings, especially since the writing is reminiscent of both C.S. Lewis and J. R. R. Tolkien. I hope to read the next book whenever it comes out. 3.5/5 Stars
