Coltrane Seesequasis

Centuries have passed since the forces of nature won the war against humanity. Sentient animals now rule a healing world, and as the stain of mankind continues to dwindle, a young wolf called Silversong is determined to rise in the hierarchy of his pack. Strong at manipulating wind and air, all he needs is a way to prove himself to his Chief.

Before he can get the respect he deserves, however, Silversong's aspirations are cut short by the Heretic and his outcast wolves. Against all odds, the Heretic and his band of exiles escape their imprisonment far to the west and wreak havoc on Silversong's pack. The exiles pose a threat unlike any other, and their enigmatic leader won't stop his brutal conquest until all wolfkind submits to him.

Silversong can't let a monstrous wolf like the Heretic roam free. With the wind at his back, he pursues the leader of the exiles into forests of shadow and into ancient places better left forgotten. But the further he strays from home, the more he comes to realize that maybe his enemies aren't so evil after all. Maybe there's a reason for the destruction they seek... and maybe there's a far greater danger lying in wait.

After uncovering long forgotten secrets hidden deep beneath the earth, Silversong now finds himself in the middle of a battle for the soul of the Four Territories. On one side is the Heretic, the leader of the exiles intent on destroying the Wolven Code and conquering all wolfkind by force. On the other side is the Warden, who aims to impose her dogmatic and oppressive interpretation of the Wolven Code on all the packs.Silversong understands that the Four Territories cannot truly thrive when confined to the Warden's narrow vision, but he also can't let the Heretic bring devastation to all who resist him. By using his newfound powers, Silversong takes it upon himself to break the boundaries between the Four Territories and unite them as one, undermining the Warden's authority in the process. Only by standing together as true allies can they hope to defeat the enemy.

Reviews
"A mysterious, magically animated landscape juiced by superb sensory detail. The wolves of the Northlands are plagued by infighting among a threadbare alliance of packs. Enter Silversong, desperate to unite wolfkind against the enemy from without as well as the treachery within of blighted tradition and toxic loyalties. He is a hero with a brilliant weapon he can’t quite master and a jumbled head full of futures pitted against a dire present. Terrified and defiantly brave, frustrated and stalwart, Silversong is our guide to a world of wind weavers and quicksand conjurors. What an exciting, big-hearted romp into a fantastical kingdom that is eerily familiar." -- Tim Wynne-Jones, author of The Starlight Claim
