The town has given a name to a creature it believes to be dangerous: the Wilderness Wolf. But when Charlie Bone goes back to Bloor's Academy, the school for gifted children where he and the other Children of the Red King study, Billy Raven tells him that the Wilderness Wolf is shouting for help. The sixth book of Jenny Nimmo's Children of the Red King, after Charlie Bone and the Hidden King, published in the United States as Charlie Bone and the Beast.

Where it sits

Notes

  • From the series record (Children of the Red King): Also marketed as the 'Charlie Bone' series (US title convention). A separate prequel trilogy, Chronicles of the Red King (2011-2013), covers Red King backstory and is not included here.

Publication order and internal chronology are tracked as two separate orderings, but they resolve to the exact same sequence for this book, so one combined line is shown instead of two identical ones.
