Yup. And they forced me to study very hard for a long time and take terribly long standardized tests.

Heyo. I be Raivyn in case you didn't notice my intro. Anyways, just tellin' the story of how I found this series.

I've been a wolf lover for a long while and I was designing a layout for a wolf rp guild on Neopets oh so long ago and I googled "Wolf's Eyes" in hopes of finding a cool picture. Lo and behold, a book cover pops up. Curious, I clicked on it and read the description and thought it looked interesting. I searched for it at my school and public library, however, and couldn't find it. I promptly forgot about the book. Quite a while later I was visiting a Barnes and Noble when I saw the hardbacks for Wolf Captured on sale. Seeing the book jogged my memory and I ended up buying the first, third and fourth book that day. Eventually I got the rest of the series. It took me a while to read everything because I kept getting interrupted by petty things like school but I finished it in the end.

So that's my story. One of my stories.

Interesting story ^_~, Did it confuse you to read Book3 before Book2? o_o
BTW, feel free to get any thread back on subject :3

I figured you guys wouldn't mind^^

Anywho, I knew I was missing the second book but I started reading the third book anyways once I was done with the first one but I stopped when I got the second one, read the second one, and finished the third one. I really should reread the series once I get a few others out of the way. I'm sure it'd make more sense the second time around.

I know how you feel. I started with the second book on accident.

Iv only ever done that with the Elfquest series ( large graphic novel version) and regretted it. When you jump from book one to book 3 and find out a character dies , it makes it harder to read book2 without getting teary eyed everytime that character pops up T-T.

Good thing very few characters get killed off in FS. At least not ones we like or know about.

Yeah that would suck. But as I've mentioned before the only book series that I read in the wrong order was the Julie of the Wolves trilogy. I read the trilogy completely backwards. It wasn't so bad, it was kinda like Star Wars lol, reading the end before the beginning. Plus that series wasn't all that epic. Believe me I love it, but it wasn't FS or HP or something.

I read Julie of the Wolves all mixed up. I think I did second then first then third. I don't think it made as much of a difference there though.

spotted "Through Wolf's Eyes" while I was at the book store with my aunt around christmas time, and was interested by the title. i love wolves! so i read the back and thought "this might be cool". i wasn't really into books then. so my aunt said she buy it for me for christmas, and i've been hooked ever since.

I started reading the books not to long before Wolf's Blood first came out. I'm so happy I didn't have to wait for any of them :D

having to wait for the books gave me time to find more books to get addicted to, which brings me to my current condition: too many books, not enough time! "Through Wolf's Eyes" was really the first book i had read since i was in middle school. i'd kinda dropped the habit, and it helped me pick it up again.
