Description
Fans of Leigh Bardugo and Holly Black will devour this gorgeously imagined fantasy about a dark forest besieged by monsters - and the wild queen who has sworn to drive them out.
A fierce young queen, neither human nor lynx, who fights to protect a forest humans have long abandoned.
An exhausted young soldier, last of his name, who searches for the brother who disappeared beneath those trees without a trace.
A golden dragon, fearsome and vengeful, whose wingbeats haunt their nightmares and their steps.
When these three paths cross at the fringes of a war between monsters and men, shape-shifter queen and reluctant hero strike a deal that may finally turn the tide against the rising hordes of darkness. Ren will help Lukasz find his brother...if Lukasz promises to slay the dragon.
But promises are all too easily broken.
This Eastern European fantasy debut, inspired by the Polish fairy tale "The Glass Mountain", will take you on a twisting journey full of creeping tension, simmering romance, and haunting folklore - perfect for listeners who loved An Enchantment of Ravens and The Hazel Wood.

A new classic!
Wow. I loved this!! It was such an awe-inspiring fantasy novel that kept me hooked from the first page. The dips back and forth between past and present didn't quite land for me all the time, but it still was an incredibly written book.
DON'T CALL THE WOLF was a story inspired by Polish mythology with all the wisp-like trappings of a fairy tale. The ambiance of the monster-ridden forest and the themes of fate, loyalty and kindness drew me in. I thought the ending was a little rushed, considering the rest of the novel was so well laid-out and paced, but that was the only disapopinting piece.
I thought the way the characters were first introduced to us, and to each other, could have been a little less clunky, but it made sense in the long run. I just think for a 450+ page book, it could have been a little better to be set up.
This book was really good - it didn't stumble in any of the major pitfalls that I see a lot of YA falling into. While the main characters do end up together, there is no love triangle and no quirky side characters - this book had a purpose and it stuck to it.
The adventure was exciting! I was deeply engrossed in the plot and eagerly watched it unfold. It was exciting to meet some of the other characters, get more into who they are and their motivations, and see how the group came together to make sure that the overarching plot was succeeded - no matter the cost.
The creatures in this book gave me some serious Witcher vibes - with their wildness and their types - which really gave that book that extra oomph. The worldbuilding, mythology, and creatures definitely made this a really exciting, interesting, and great read for me.
TLDR: Such a great novel! I think it got lost on a lot of people because of the madness that was 2020, but if you have an extra audible credit, or just want to purchase a good book, I highly recommend this! It's a new classic in the fairy tale and folklore genre.
