About this listen
Inti is not the woman she once was, either, changed by the harm she's witnessed - inflicted by humans on both the wild and each other. Yet as the wolves surprise everyone by thriving, Inti begins to let her guard down, even opening herself up to the possibility of love. But when a farmer is mauled to death, Inti knows where the town will lay blame. Unable to accept her wolves could be responsible, she makes a reckless decision to protect them. But if the wolves didn't make the kill, then is something more sinister at play?
Once There Were Wolves is the unforgettable story of a woman desperate to save the creatures she loves - if she isn't consumed by a wild that was once her refuge.©2021 Charlotte McConaghy (P)2021 Penguin Random House Australia

Evocative
Beautiful, lyrical writing of a deeply touching story. Wonderfully narrated. An unexpected little treasure for which I am grateful.

Enjoyable
Very enjoyable audiobook. Well read and easy enough to keep track of the characters — although I kept getting my Duncans mixed up with my Dougals and Douglases. Nice to be in the Scottish highlands.

I loved the flow of script, the painting of the scenery without to many abstract adjectives. it was so visceral and intimate.

Breathtaking
Ordinarily I wouldn't have picked a story like this but it was a bookclub choice and I am so glad it was.
The story was atmospheric, haunting, palpable, sad but heart-warming all in one. I can't think of many books that have brought a tear to my eye, but this one did - twice!

Great listen!
I loved this book. It was a great mix of fragility, raw clashes with nature and the exploration of how the human animal is the most volatile predator that roams this earth. The language captures the imagination straight away and kept me mesmerized throughout. Great performance.

swept into a world of emotion.
This story is made so beautiful and raw by saskias perfect narration.
I've listened a few times to this story. I would find holes to poke had I physically read the book first. however I find this to be by far my best audible experience.
it is brutal and harsh but also juxtaposed with soft warmth and heart. I loved the way the story entraps you with excitement and fear but also love and happiness.

One of my favourite reads for the year. Maybe ever
Charlotte McConaghy is an author who cleaves me in two with the stories she tells and the characters she creates. I found myself sobbing noiselessly barely able to hold myself together on multiple occasions. The passages about the wolves were beautiful and inspiring and I loved Inti and Aggie with every fibre of my being. I know some people found the ending predictable but I think if you read this as a story to be felt rather than a mystery to be solved you will enjoy the book much more.

I could have used an extra 4 hours! I found this story so different and it grabbed me straight away. Loved the passion, the uncertainty and the love.

Grotesquely gorgeous
Loved this book! Beautifully written story about a grim topic (DFV) told through a fascinating vehicle (wolves) in a remote and beautiful part of the world (Scottish highlands). Highly recommend!
