Gr 6-9-A sequel to Wild Magic (Atheneum, 1992). Veralidaine Sarrasri, a.k.a. Daine, is on the road with her mentor and tutor, the master mage Numair Salmalin; her faithful pony, Cloud; and Skysong, the dragon kit she is raising. They are answering a summons from the Long Lake wolf pack that was once Daine's only family. Help is urgently needed to oppose the ``two-leggers'' who are despoiling the pack's home, but as they enter the valley, Daine and Numair learn that more is amiss. High treason is afoot, and only extreme efforts-natural and magical-can save the Kingdom of Tortall. Orphaned Daine, now 14, has always been able to mind-speak with animals, but now she is also learning to heal their wounds magically, to enter their minds and see with their eyes, and to change temporarily into animal form. New readers may have some trouble believing the premise of this book, lacking the background information so carefully presented in Wild Magic. Wolf-Speaker is more of a simple adventure than the exploration of characters, feelings, and relationships found in the earlier title. Wild Magic is a powerful fantasy, and its readers will clamor for, and probably not be disappointed by, this sequel. It resolves its conflicts quite satisfactorily, but there is still room for further adventures for Daine and her friends.-Susan L. Rogers, Chestnut Hill Academy, PA

Daine has been called away from the palace and the riders by her wolf pack brothers and sisters, who need her help to save the valley that is their home. She soon finds out though, that she is not just to save the valley for the wolf pack she loves, but for the humans and immortals that call the valley their home too!
a brilliant work. I thought this book, in particular the characters of the wolves, was masterly.I enjoyed both Daine’s trials learning to control her new talents, and her improved relationship with Numair. I loved the amazingly evil Yolane and Tristan, found Daine’s animal companions interesting, and quickly grew to like Maura. I recommend you read it – actually, I recommend you buy it, it’s that good!
We now see Daine as a confident young woman. Together with her new charge Kit, her ever-present horse Cloud and her teacher Numair, we see Daine as both more human and more in tune with animals than ever before. In this book, Daine has finally learnt to controll her powers; and her pat. She is blossoming because of it. Almost a stand-alone book, this novel adds a wholer new dimention to the series. In this, we see Daine learn how to cope with new people, new powers and new situations. And learn a little more about Numairs' murky past- a revalation that asks more questions than it answers.
This is the second installment of the Immortals series.
Diana is summoned by her past, more specifically the wolf pack who took her in when bandits burnt her from her home and the villagers turned on her. Diana knows she must go, but when the wolves start acting like humans Diana knows she's in trouble and just to add to it. The Badger pays another visit. . .
Join Daine and Numair once again in the second book of The Imortals Quartet. This time Daine travels back to where it all began to meet up with the pack of wolves that she once called family. The pack need her help to translate to the humans of the area that what they are doing is harming the animals and all wildlife.
Daine says that she will try, but how can she put across the views to humans when they don't want to listen?
In the course of the translating, Daine uncovers a plot that could mean the end of the kingdom of Tortal - will she get word to Numair in time?
The second book in the Immortals Quartet was just as gripping as the first for me. In this book you grow with Daine, and go on her adventure with a pack of wolves. With her growing her magic grows and she now learns how to enter animals mind. Although a little slower then the first, this book is just as good and continues on with the wonderful story in the first.
The second book in the Immortals series, this one starts off a bit slower, and there are moments when you wonder if the author herself knows where the story is going. For a while there, nothing really happens, but then it picks up and you're glad you picked up the book. Despite the few boring parts, I read this in about two days. Good books, good author.
On the edge of your seat, suspenseful, with mind blowing twist and turn this book is well worth a read for any avid reader… No collection is complete without this title amongst it and one you read into the first few pages you will not be able to put it down. 5 stars!!!!
