A Walk In Wolf Wood Book Review

A Walk in Wolf Wood by Mary Stewart






















Paperback192 pages
Read: Mar. 12 - Mar. 14
Rating: 3/5
Genres: Children's, Fantasy, Magic
Summery: deeper into the magic spell...
Behind John and Margaret lay the paved road, the car, and their sleeping parents. Ahead of them lay Wolf Wood and a fantastic adventure of medieval magic.
There, within the enchanted forest where the romantic long ago and the present overlapped, they met the noble Lord Mardian. Once the Duke's favorite, he was cursed by an evil sorcerer to roam the woods at night as a werewolf.
Only these children from the future and the power of his magic amulet could release him from the spell. But once the spell was broken, they found themselves caught in a fourteenth century world of betrayal and danger...

Review: The story begins with Margaret and John, who are picnicking in a field with there napping parents, when they notice a crying man walking who disappears into the woods (wolf wood) they decide to follow him to see if they an help. While the story was nice I couldn't quite get into it, I liked the characters. It reminded me of The Scarlet Letter in terms of the pacing and my enjoyment of the story.


Hope everybody had/has a great day : )
