Beneath the world's oldest university lies a secret library where the most feared villains from myths, legends, and forgotten kingdoms are not merely written about-they are imprisoned inside living books.
Mara Quill, a newly chosen apprentice librarian, has been taught one rule above all others: stories are dangerous, and villains must never be trusted. If one escapes, their legend begins again in the real world.
Then Mara accidentally releases the most feared prisoner in the Library of Living Villains: the Wolf King.
For generations, his name has meant blood, betrayal, and terror. But when the Wolf King saves Mara instead of destroying her, he claims the impossible-that the heroes who wrote history may have lied, and some villains were never villains at all.
Now bound to a forbidden truth, Mara must navigate a gothic world of enchanted books, hidden archives, dangerous magic, and stories that fight to protect their own lies. With a trained hunter watching her every move and the library's powerful head librarian determined to preserve the official record, Mara begins to uncover a question more dangerous than any escaped monster:
What if history was written by heroes who needed villains?
Dark, mysterious, and richly atmospheric, The Wolf King's Book is a fantasy adventure filled with magical libraries, living stories, moral secrets, ancient betrayals, and the haunting possibility that every tale has more than one side.
