Dion was a healer and a wolfwalker, and the unique telepathic bond that she shared with the wolf Gray Hishn sometimes seemed to amplify her sensitivity to her patients. But she never guessed how strong that bond could be, or what kind of power it could wield, until she found herself lost in the wilderness, with angry slavers at her heels and war on the horizon. Suddenly she and her fellow travelers were fighting for their lives in the snowy winter wastes, where the wolves were their only guides, the greatest secret of the ancients their only salvation...and Dion their only hope to survive.

"I enjoyed the action in this book. Right away, the reader is swept into a battle scene where he or she is just as disoriented as the protagonist. Pros - fast-paced with a little romance. Cons - since the book was so fast-paced, some of the scenes that deserved to be slower, were a little rushed."

" This is a VERY good book. All of Tara K. Harper's books are very good. "
— Ylrac, 10/18/2013" I almost kept this one. If you love Jacob from Twilight or Perrin from the Wheel of Time series, you would probably love this book a lot. A woman and her wolf make for a very long and clever tale. Plenty of action and a fair amount of grit. This one almost made the cut so it is a good solid read. =) "
— Bradley, 8/14/2010" This is a great Sci-Fi read for the fantasy lover. I loved it in high school & still pick it back up every now and then "
— Roseanna, 11/12/2009" Second half of the book was practically completely irrelevant to plot of first half of book. It was slightly implausible how Dion knew all this scientific terminology like virus and flu when these terms had never come up before and considering the setting. Will not be reading rest of the novels. "
