On the orders of the Lord Protector Cromwell, Robyn Goodfellowe and her father come to Kilkenny, Ireland, to wipe out the last of the wolves, deemed dangerous beasts, that live in the neighboring forest. Robyn, unable to hunt with her father and sick of being confined within the city walls, decides to sneak out, only to get caught.

She's saved by Mebh, a wild girl who lives among the wolves. Mebh and her mother are leading the pack somewhere far away from Kilkenny and the "townies" who threaten them. Mebh introduces Robyn to her way of life, and the two quickly bond over the freedoms of the forest.

Robyn soon discovers WolfWalkers, people who can communicate with and turn into wolves. After learning that they aren't to be feared, Robyn decides she must protect Mebh and her pack. But as the lives of the townies and the wolves collide, Robyn's relationship with her father comes to a head when she's transformed into the very thing he is tasked to destroy.

This graphic novel makes a great gift for readers of all ages and includes a special introduction, written and illustrated by film cocreator, Tomm Moore, and co-Art Director, Maria Pareja.

## Quotes

Mebh Óg MacTíre: Fadó fadó…

In the Kingdom of Osraighe, there was a tribe with the power to heal. When Naomh Pádraig (Saint Patrick) came to tell the people of the new religion, this tribe stayed apart from the others. They would not give up the old ways.

When the holy man preached, they howled from the forest like wolves to remind the people that there was another, older wisdom in the woods. Some say Naomh Pádraig cursed them; others that he blessed them. But the result was the same—for ever more, they would walk as people by day and roam as wolves by night.

Leaving their human form behind, any harm or good that befell them as wolves, they felt in their waking form, too. They were a proud breed living with the wild wolves, keeping the peace between man and the wilderness.

But Ireland’s neighbors craved her wealth and took most of her forests for their ships. With the woods gone, the Wolfwalkers dwindled until only two of their kind remained—a mother and her daughter. Then a new leader came to power; he killed the king of England and took the title Lord Protector.

He swore to tame Ireland more thoroughly than the king had ever managed, ordering the last of the forest felled and the wolves destroyed. He brought his army to subjugate the people and impose with force the order that had been resisted for so long. Among his men were a hunter and his daughter, Robyn Goodfellowe.
