The Wolf Among the Wild Hunt

by Merc Fenn Wolfmoor

Description

Skythulf wants to live. Raised in the fight pits, trained to kill or be killed, he yearns for freedom that's out of reach. He's a scythewulf: a wolf-shifter considered neither fully man nor beast, his life worth nothing to his keepers...until Brennus, knight-champion of Saorlland, rescues him from certain death and offers him a new life. When he mistakenly kills a corrupted nun, Skythulf has one chance to redeem himself and restore his honor. He must run with the Wild Hunt: an age-old trial show more of blood and courage, where every step hides peril and carnage. If he survives, he will be, pardoned. If he fails, Brennus will die brutally at his side. Few have ever returned from the fae-haunted land, where horrors unnamed dwell beside the enchanted and the damned. There is no rest, no relent, and no mercy. In the Wild Hunt, you run or you die. show less

I got this free via the author's newsletter, thank you! Alas, though I got to 49%, I am now slinking away, defeated by the language, but mostly by the trips back in memory plus the somewhat convoluted language. I don't have a very good feeling for the MC or for anyone he interacts with, except the knight, who is the best character.

I need main characters I can feel for. That's hard when I can't quite grasp the essence of one, any direction or desire beyond vague service. Ah well. I tried.
