faye writes... Hi Michelle! I grew up reading your books from the age of eight to now eighteen and the wolf brother series is hands down one of the best i have ever read. I've always loved the idea of toraks world being adapted to a TV show, and I know there was a cancellation a couple years ago, but do you ever think an adaptation would be possible in the future? These books were...

Valda writes... I love this book and always enjoy recommending it to other people, so as it’s hot and steamy in Suffolk, what could be better than (re) visiting Gruhuken with Jack and spending some time in the Arctic. Michelle Replies... Dear Valda,  it must indeed be hot in Suffolk - it's getting pretty tropical where I am in south London - so what a great idea to tunnel down into some Arctic chill with...

Briar writes... I love the Wolf brother series. It changed my life. I’m currently on oathbreaker. It is my favorite series yet. Michelle Replies... Hello, Briar.  It's brilliant that you're enjoying the books so much, and thanks a lot for letting me know!  I hope you enjoy Oathbreaker as much as the previous stories, and that you also enjoy the ones after that: Ghost Hunter, Viper's Daughter, Skintaker and Wolfbane.  May the guardian run with you!  With very...

Ryan writes... Dear Michelle, I hope this message finds you well and you are finding ways to stay cool during this heatwave we’re currently having! I wanted to message to congratulate you on what a triumph RAINFOREST is. I was lucky enough to get a digital proof on NetGalley and of course I had to read it straight away without a moments notice and by GOD it was incredible. I loved every second. It came...

Lau writes... I want to thank you for writing this novel. English is not my first language, nor am I from the UK, so it has been a truly enriching journey. It has been years since I’ve read with a dictionary in hand, and it has made me feel very rewarded. Furthermore, it has helped me connect with my dear aunt, who is also a big lover of gothic novels. Thank you from the bottom...

Pamela writes... Hi, I’ve recently read both Dark Matter and Thin Air and I am devastated you don’t have any more books along these lines. I genuinely don’t want to read anything else. I absolutely loved everything about them: you’re writing style, the plot, the story telling, the atmosphere, the characters and all of the spooky parts were amazing. I’m begging you to write more books like these. They’re beautiful. I bought both on my...

Jasmyn writes... Hi my names jasmyn and I have loved reading the chronicles of ancient darkness. I would like to ask you about clan guardians. Can your clan guardian be an animal that you are deeply connected too? Thanks, Jasmyn Michelle Replies... Hello again, Jasmyn, and thanks for this.  You're quite right, your clan guardian can indeed be an animal to whom you feel deeply connected.  In my previous answer about clans, I explained what...

Jasmyn writes... Can you have a clan today. Is a clan a bird or animal you are deeply connected too?Can that be your clan and guardian? Michelle Replies... What a fascinating question, Jasmyn, I don't think I've been asked that in quite the same way before.   First, let's look at what we mean by a clan.  In Torak's world, you're generally born into a certain clan: for instance, Fin-Kedinn was born to the Raven Clan. ...

Isabelle writes... Hello, Michelle! Hope you’re doing well! I fell in love with the Chronicles of Ancient Darkness books as a pre-teen and has since re-read them in about every stage of my life and each re-read gives new perspectives on the books as my own life experiences grow. For example, while as a kid, I despised Hord, as an adult, I can also feel empathy for him. Sure, he is vain, prideful and a...
