    About this audiobook

    Clement-Davies creates an intriguing new mythology for the spectacularly envisioned action of The Sight.

    After a pregnant she-wolf and her pack take shelter in an abandoned Transylvanian castle, they are set upon by Morgra, a lone wolf whose traveling companion feeds on the dead. One of the she-wolf’s pups is destined to hold a key to unimaginable power, and Morgra will do anything to seize that power for herself.

    “A heartbreaking work of imaginative vision.”—Kirkus Reviews

      An interesting story
    • 5/5
       Magic. Ancient legends come to life. Evil sorceresses and powerful forces. The Sight by David Clement-Davie will keep you turning pages the whole way through.When Larka is just a pup, a curse is placed on her family that threatens to tear their pack apart. The Sight follows one wolf pup and her families struggle against Morgra, an evil drappa wolf, as well as their fight to keep their clan together. They are forced to flee from the curse, all the while it picking them off one by one. They soon learn the Larka has the power off the sight, and that they are the family that is going to defeat the powers of evil. Larka soon finds herself on her own, and unless she can figure out how to harness her powers, all of the animals will find themselves under Morgra’s rule. She has to travel far, in both the worlds above and below, and consult with both the living and the dead. The ending will shock the readers in an twist that you will never see coming. I thought that The Sight was slow during some points, and confusing and fast-paced during others. Overall, though, the author did a good job of keeping the story interesting. He does a poor job, however, of explaining the more mystical and spiritual parts, most of them leaving the reader confused about what was going on. The book itself was written beautifully, one of the best I had ever read. David will transport you into a magical world, full of love, friendship, and evil. It was a beautifully spun tail, one that I would recommend to any reader willing to read through a few slow parts to get to the ones that really matter.

       David Clement-Davies makes an excellent book that for most writers would be hard to manage. Its from a wolfs point of view. I don't know of any other authors that could pull this off. There is Palla who gives birth to four cubs but two die during the birth. It tells of them hunting, and their gods. It also talk about the Pallas sister Morgra and the stories of the "sight" or the ability to see through the eyes of birds. Soon after the birth of the cubs Morgra shows up after chasing the pack back to their birthing den. The author does an amazing job with detail of how she looks, and the emotions the wolfs were feeling. I have only read 30 pages so i do not know much more, but Clements does a good job with detail. The only problem with this book is that it is slow going. you get bored of it very easily, and that's why i dropped it. Other than that it was an okay book.
    • 5/5
      A beautiful work of fiction. Not only is the story overall complex and richly detailed, but so are the characters, both large and small. Every character no matter how small had a part to play. The Sight is not an easy read. The plot has may rich nuances, complicated interwoven back-stories, and many twists and turns. Clement-Davies even creates new words for the wolves to use and define their world rather then using human ones. The Sight is a deeply moving story in which the reader can easily find themselves concerned for all the characters both large and small. Even the main a villain, Morgra, found my deep hearted sympathy. All the characters have a reason to be doing what their doing. You understand their motives and the scars that mark their past.
    • 4/5
      A unique book with a theme not usualy portrayed. Wolves in the Transylvanian forests in the time of Vladmire the Impaler, the great dracula himself. It is a story of brotherhood compainionship and the bonds of a family, and of course giant wolf fights and magic wolves.
    • 5/5
      This is my absolute favorite book. As you follow these characters, you can't help but notice who they really are. Larka is tangled in a web of mistery and misery and she loses everthing she loves until finally she must face her destiny. You couln't find a closer family and I think anyone with any sense could see how amazing this tale is. The whole time I asked myself, what is the bigger picture of this story, and I figured it out. Now it's your turn.
    • 3/5
      A wolf pack is a very good thing to be in. This wolf pack has just had four pups but 2 oh them died.
    • 4/5
      Wow! But I agree, sad ending :(
    • 1/5
      Sophomoric, predictable. Bleck!
    • 5/5
      The Sight by David Clement-Davies is a book about wolves told through the point of view of wolves. This book was one of the most original works I’ve ever read. The wolves seemed like wild beasts, yet strangely human-like, especially strange because some of the wolves have magical powers.
    • 5/5
      I was a little apprehensive about reading the sight due to the fact that it wasn’t my typical type of reading material but I kept my mind open when I began reading it. The first half of the book seemed to drag on a little but as I read I became so seduced by the storyline and after the first 100 pages I was no longer able to put the book down. The emotions that I felt while reading The Sight will stick with me for a long time. I will defiantly recommend this book to anyone who asks.
    • 5/5
      Over all one of the best books I've read. The plot is amazing and the characters are so well expressed. Everything about this book is great. The only setback is, that it's hard to put down.
    • 5/5
      If you like wolves or magic I wholeheartily recommend this. Its beautifully written and the writer really knows how to paint a scene and write the charcters. Its a mystic adventure, really.
