"Briskly folds magic and slapstick into a madcap scramble." - Kirkus Reviews, starred review DI TOFT lives in Portishead, England, with her husband, their children, and their dog, Dave, who is so ginormous that he can be located by Google Maps. Her debut novel, WOLVEN, is the first book in a planned trilogy about Nat and Woody's hairy adventures! From Wolven #2: The Twilight Circus
Since the summer, Nat had developed some seriously cool improvements to his human senses, and had so far managed to keep them secret. The cool things were:- Long-range, high-frequency hearing- Sixth sense (needed a bit more practice)- Telepathy, also known as the two-way mind-meld thing (ditto)- Super-enhanced infrared vision
His eyesight was awesome. Nat used to need glasses for schoolnow he could see for miles and, even more amazing, he could see in the dark!
But there was a flip side. Nat struggled with self-control, sometimes resenting his new senses as they threatened to take over. Other problems were:- Occasional dog breath and increased flatulence (the latter more difficult to keep secret)- Overdeveloped olfactory glands (which made all smells stronger: see above)- Other people's nasty, dark thoughts (which he really would rather not know)- The eye thing Praise for Wolven
