Wolf Pack, Book 1

De: Edo van Belkom

Narrado por: Alan Carlson

Wolf Pack is the inspiration for the new original series on Paramount+ and is a winner of the prestigious Aurora Award and the Silver Birch Award.

Nothing gets between a wolf and its pack…

Most of the time, Noble, Argus, Harlan and Tora are like any other teenagers, prowling the halls of their high school in search of new crushes and true friendships, all while trying to keep up their grades. Except these teens are anything but ordinary…

Discovered as wolf cubs in the wilderness of Redstone Forest, the pack knows their adoptive parents are the only humans they can trust with their shape-shifting secret. So whenever the siblings want to wolf around, they race to the forest to run—and relish their special bond. Until the terrible day a TV crew films their shocking transformation—and Tora is captured by a scientist determined to reveal her supernatural abilities to the world.

Now the brothers will do anything to get their sister back, even if it means taking their powers to a whole new level by becoming werewolves for the very first time...something their parents warned them never to attempt. But once the teens go to the dark side, will they ever make it back to the only life they’ve ever known?

Hogue

Not too good.
Go for different.
Teenage pablum.
Try David foster Wallace instead.
You’ll benefit.

Very different from the TV show!

There is hardly any similarities between the TV showx and this book that it was supppsedly based on other than the setting is near a forest, the "dad" is a forest ranger named Garrett, and one of the wolves is named Harlan. That's it. Outside of those basic things, these are 2 completely different stories. For me, that was ok. Both book and show have their merits. I found this book enjoyable of somewhat short. Hopefully, future installments will be longer.

Fast & entertainment

Wolf Pack and how to protect and love your family and who is your friend?

Saw the TV Series First

I saw the TV series first and then found the book. They are both good although the TV series is quite different from the story in the book. Hoping that the TV series will get another few seasons so that we can see the character development and how it compares with the other books in the series.

Enjoyable

Good story, good narration, The story was a unique one and much better than the TV series.

Wolf Pack

Fun, fast moving book with lots of action. I enjoyed the narrator. A quick easy listen.

Too simple for me

Not sure if this is intended to be YA but it does read that way. Middle school maybe. Not bad at all just not for me.

A quick and easy read/listen

I think this was an Audible Book of the Day and that is how it ended up in my library. It was a very quick and easy read/listen that had a completed story arc at the end of the book. This is definitely a YA book, but it tells you that in the summary - or implies it I think, so there is nothing wrong with that.

Apparently, it is also a series on one of the streaming services but I hadn't ever heard of it, so everything was new to me.

For the most part, it is a cute story. It revolves around 4 adopted siblings who also happen to be wolf shifters. They are found in the woods by a park ranger after a fire kills the wolf parents. This story was very superficial. In other words, the descriptions, the world building, the characters - they were very top/surface level. There wasn't too much time spent on developing any of these things past the very top level.

With that being said, it still was entertaining. Realistic or believable? I mean within the existing expectations of the canon shifter world. Well, that one was a bit lacking. If you thought too hard about some of the situations the characters found themselves in and the way they went about reacting to it - well, then things were not as solid.

But, it was a quick and entertaining way to spend a couple of hours. That is always a positive.

I can see why they made it a TV show

I can definitely see why they adapted this story into a TV series. The story itself is interesting, there are a few things that I wasn't a huge fan of, but overall entertaining. The narration by Alan Carlson was AMAZING! Character voices were distinct and just his overall tone draws you into the story. I really enjoyed his performance.

(Wolf Pack #1)

I am loving Wolf Pack on Paramount+ and was eager to read the series upon which it was based. I am not disappointed!
