A Wolf So Grim And Mangy
A Wolf So Grim And Mangy: A humorous midlife fantasy novel | Caroline Noe
1 post | 1 read
A Land of Darkness drowns in despair. It’s called My Office. When I’m not typing manifests, I churn out fantasy books no-one reads. Less Young Adult, more MAD: Middle Aged Disappointment. So, when I’m gifted a magic book for Secret Santa, I can’t believe my luck. One miserable ‘Once Upon a Time’ later and I’m marooned on a frozen mountain, heaving with weirdos, biting each other’s throats. The Snake’s oily, The Eagle’s bald, The Bear’s accident prone, My ‘Handsome Prince’ is more cheesed off Wolf, busy scratching, and I’ve no idea who the Villain is (unless it’s me). Worst of all… I’ve no way home and the Mangy Wolf’s got the hots for me. Growing old is no fairytale.

I really liked this. The main character had lots of British snark which I enjoyed the humor of. This is a fantasy story with shifters that has a dash of a love story. It is the 1st in a series but doesn't leave off on a cliffhanger. I appreciated that I could not guess at what was going to happen next. It was also, I thought, a really unique story regarding the relationships of the shifters and the kingdom. Continued in comments.
