Wild howls in the evergreen - Wolves of legends forgotten: An urban fantasy book for readers who believe life's greatest adventure can begin at any ag (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798311713542)

Fairytales aren't meant to begin midage, but fate has other plans. After loss dulls her life's magic, Daciana moves through the world, more shadow than self-until a mysterious gift arrives at her door on the day after her fortieth birthday. A whisper from her past, a key to her Romanian roots, and a call from ancient beings who have been waiting to pull her in...

Not all heroes are young. Not all adventures begin at twenty.
Finally-a novel that embraces the magic of experience. The time has come for stories that celebrate wisdom, strength, and second chances.

This slow-burning mystery is woven from older magic, wilder myths, and creatures long forgotten. Rooted in over two-thousand-year-old legends and Romanian folklore, this story is raw, untamed and unlike anything you've read before.

This book was written out of a want to break the stereotypes and challenge the idea that the highlight of your life is always in your youth. Fairytales should not end when you get married and, no matter your age, your next adventure could be just around the corner.

More than a book-this is an experience waiting for you. If you've ever craved something more than a dragon-and-sword fantasy; if you find yourself drawn to wolves, starry skies and ancient forests; if you would like to read about a heroine that's in her middle age and love the idea of forgotten legends, this is your story.

Curl up with a blanket and a warm drink, and lose yourself in Daciana's world. The perfect read for those rainy days and long winter nights, this novel will transport you far away.

Here's what early readers are saying:

"The woman, the wolf... Tradition, culture, values, changes and coping. The fights within ourselves and the outward ones. Let this fast paced mythical journey wrap itself around you like a traditional Romanian blouse, with all of its mysteries. A must have for the reader who likes to explore and learn through beautiful story-telling."

"One of the great pleasures of reading is being able to partially identify with the characters in a story. I experienced this from the very first pages of this wonderful book. The personal introspection of the main character reflects a part of my own soul. Daciana is authentic. The narrative traces her journey from an ordinary life to an extraordinary one, beautifully blending our reality with the fantastic realm of legends and traditions."

"From the first pages, I felt like I was stepping into a story that is not just about wolves and legends, but about all of us, the worries, regrets and hopes that model us as humans. Daciana is one of the most authentic characters I met lately. (...) She is not perfect, does not have answers for everything. But this is exactly what makes her so humane and so strong. (...) The book left me with something precious, a mix of melancholy and hope. (...) It made me remember that, even when you feel lost, there's always a spark that deserves to be lit again."

"This book struck a chord with me, as I could deeply relate to many of Daciana's struggles and emotions. It made the story feel incredibly real and engaging, and I found myself unable to put it down. The mix of fantasy and folklore is breathtaking."
