Waterstones Books Magazines Quarterly Issue 4
A richly woven tale... an enthralling fantasy story of terror and beauty that is sure to grip a new generation of children.

Synopsis
It is an icy night in the country that long ago was known as Transylvania. The wintry ground crackles as a hunter's paw breaks the hard earth. The wolf pauses, her breath like smoke in the cold air, then a howl pierces the night. But it is her eyes, not her howl, that speak of danger. Beware of the Sight. In the shadow of the Carpathian mountains, a pack of wolves seeks shelter from the vicious winter. A legend clings to them - a story of man and wolf, of power and death. The Sight has come into their world. They will never be the same again..."A strong, uncompromising story with truths as its core that echo our own lives..." - "Scotsman".

Customer Reviews

An Incredible, But Often Sad, Reading Experience!
David Clement-Davies follows up his excellent first novel, Fire Bringer, with another wonderful multilayered animal fantasy. The Sight explores the landscape of our fairy tales and nightmares in the company of animals -- primarily wolves -- whose capacity for loyalty and savagery mirror our own. Clement-Davies has created a plot that is rich with suspense, pathos, and tenderness; and has developed characters that will stay with this reader forever (e.g., Larka, Hutttser, Palla, Fell, Bran, Kar and Morgra to name a few). The Sight is more than just an excellent book -- it is an excellent reading experience. You'll find yourself filled with joy and, all too often, with pain as you feel that you are right there with these wolves going through their incredible journey. I very highly recommend The Sight, which should have wide appeal across age and intellectual levels. Do yourself a favor and put The Sight (as well as Clement-Davies' Fire Bringer) high up on your reading list.

Amazing book, this has got to be one of the best books i've ever read
This book is very well written has a good storyline, but not to easy to guess whats going to happen. i can't belive how few people have this book, buy it and you won't regret it. this book is about wolves and based on larka, a white wolf who is a cub at the begining of the book and slowly grows up in it. the order this series goes in is: Fire Bringer, The Sight and Fell. all three of these are amazing books. it is inportant that you read The Sight before you read Fell but Firebringer is a diffrent story so it is ok to read it before or after The Sight or Fell

super good
i loved this book and although there are a few mistakes i still enjoyed it loads. its really quite sad at times but once you pick it up you cant put it down
