Ramblefoot is the story of Raspail, a raffish black wolf with a singular flair for survival. Groomed for greatness by his adoptive uncles, Raspail is destined to be the next facet of the elk-rich province of Cob Ash. All of that changes when a vicious act of jealousy leaves him without a voice and makes him an outcast in his own pack. Exiled from Cob Ash and separated from his beloved Kileo, Raspail becomes the most dreaded wolf of all, a lone wolf --a Ramblefoot.
To fend off the madness of isolation Raspail forms an unusual alliance with a raven named Poitu, and together they embark on a journey to the fringes of the wolf territories, dangerously close to where man wages war on the wolf. It is here, in an anarchic enclave where disenfranchised ramblefoots gamble with death plundering the bountiful treasures of man, where Raspail regains his voice and comes to prominence as a giant among wolves. But Raspail has no interest in power, only Kileo, the love he was torn from. With old foes waiting to assassinate him and Cob Ash recently allied with hostile neighbor Draguignon, Raspail will need to unite the lawless, meatdrunk ramblefoots and conquer Cob Ash if he is to ever see Kileo again.
Ramblefoot is a book that celebrates nature at its most visceral, never whitewashing the world of the wolf with cliche, mawkishness, or magic. Meticulously researched and then imaginatively extrapolated, Ramblefoot has a keen eye for the extraordinary events that bloom in the wild when man isn’t looking. Ramblefoot is a powerful escapist pleasure that will immerse you in its sprawling adventure from Raspail's first trial to his last.”
