About this listen
A boy. A wolf. The legend lives on. In the Dark Time of midwinter, something is coming that will test the Clans as never before. Book eight of Michelle Paver's best-selling Wolf Brother series continues the dazzling adventure of Torak, Wolf and Renn - a story full of myth, menace, natural magic and exhilarating entertainment.
In the Dark Time of midwinter, disaster strikes the Forest. Chaos rules. Bears woken from their dens prowl the shadowy valleys. Desperate clans battle for survival. Only demons thrive.
With their world in turmoil, Torak, Renn and Wolf are tested as never before. And as a new evil haunts the devastated land, Torak must risk his sanity, his life and even his souls to save everything he loves....
Skin Taker carries you back to the Stone Age, drawing you deeper into the astonishing adventure which began with Wolf Brother.

Brilliant as always
Ian McKellen's performance was brilliant as always and I thoroughly enjoyed the latest instalment of this series. I did think the storyline might have gone a little fast at times, probably to fit the story into the same size book as usual, but it would have benefited from a little more exploration into the Stone Age world that we enjoyed so much in the first 3 books of the Chronicles Of Ancient Darkness.

Always a treat
I've listened to every one of this series and I've loved all of them. There is a lot of detail that makes the ancient past come to life and Paver's characters are excellent, even the non human ones. I love how spiritual her characters are with the nature around them. Ian McKellens narration is just wonderful, especially with Wolf.

Glorious Skin Taker
Another wonderful wonderful audio book in the Chronicles of Ancient Darkness series!
It’s a job to say for sure, because they are all so magnificent but I think it’s my favourite. Ian McKellen has the voice of an angel, that one could never get tired of listening too. I have the new book’Wolfbane’ sitting in my library ready to start tomorrow night, I’m excited but also feeling a bit sad, as this is the last book in the series. So no more Torak, Renn ,Wolf ,Fin Kedinn ,Dark and all the other wonderful characters.
A truly fantastic listen, I really do advise anyone looking for a new audio book try out Wolf Brother , and you will soon be hooked !
Super listening

Stick with it it’s one of the best!
Initially has a vibe of a rewrite to it but that’s a full misdirect it’s one of the best yet! Michelle mixes her usual beautiful prehistoric fantasy with a deconstruction of the psyche of those connected to the land and the loss of hope.
Do I have to say that Ian Mckellen is amazing as narrator, it seems superfluous!

Brilliant
I've been reading this series since I was a teenager, was so happy to see it continued almost 10yrs later, so good so scenic so beautifully written by Michelle Paver and the narration by Ian McKellen makes me wish I had the whole series as audiobooks. Just honestly want to experience more and more stories from this series. Bravo.
