This book has one of the best openings I’ve ever read. Loved the concept and the characters. I will be recommending this to everyone.

This is fun. Blending Welsh mythology with a hint of Norse, lots of dogs, some pun-loving sheep and magic, this book mixes mystery and adventure alongside the difficulties of adjusting to life after your parents have divorced.

Storm (of Odin) is perfect, a pompous pup with a very high opinion of himself. I loved his encounters with the sheep, the postman and the cat. Anyone who loves dogs cannot fail to love Storm.

Jessie is a fine heroine too, a little lost and deeply sad at the beginning, but smart and brave and talented throughout. Especially when she’s making friends with the mysterious David and his scary auntie.

It’s fun and funny, clever and magical. Enjoyable from start to finish and perfect for lovers of dogs and/or mythology.

Storm of Odin, youngest hound in the Wild Hunt, finds himself in a spot of trouble after falling to earth. He is no longer a gigantic, ravening force of nature tearing the very fabric of the sky apart, he is now a cute puppy with floppy ears and a flappy tail!

The tail weaves Welsh mythology into the modern day, old sorcerors, shape-shifting boys, and a trio of dark, but oh so stupid, wizards looking to steal the power of Storm to power their own magic and ambitions.

A wonderful adventure, that was so funny I was snorting in public (strange looks in Nero), the sections of misunderstanding between Storm and the human world are hilarious and so well written you would think Claire had first hand experience.

I loved this so much I actually had to read it a second time to make sure it was a 5-star book that I will be recommending to everyone and their granny.

I received a copy of this from NetGalley for an honest review.
