Reviews
For the original edition of
The Wolf’s Sister
“Read this book on a cold night with a blanket over your legs, your favorite beverage by your side, perhaps your own furry friend nearby….Long is a master at characterization. Deep characterization, in a short book. Madness, longing, love, desperation, motivation, hurt, betrayal–it’s all there for each primary character.”
Ciar Cullen, author
“a wonderful start to the series.”
Dee Gentle, PNR Reviews & Features Editor, Paraphenalia
4.5 Stars — “I haven’t read such a beautifully written tale in a very long time!”
Natalie, The Library
5 Angels & a Recommended Read – “The fascination that I first felt when I had the chance to read the blurb for this book was well justified…I love to read books that make me feel the emotions that the players experience, be it fear, pain, anger, happiness, sorrow and frustration. The battles that these two go through make you ask yourself what next and when will it end, but the ending is very rewarding. Overall, I could read this book repeatedly and find something new in it. Thanks to R. F. Long for a very wonderful read.”
Darksnite, Fallen Angel Reviews
4 Nymphs — “I’m pleased with the tightly constructed plot, smooth flow and nice job of describing the two races that are the focus of this story. Add in animal totems, vastly differing belief systems, death, anger, madness, betrayal and unexpected love and you have all the components needed for an entertaining afternoon read. ”
