Description
In the tranquil Swedish coastal town of Skutskär, the summer of 2004 turns into a nightmarish apocalyptic fever dream.
Inspired by the atmospheric tension of Stranger Things, the visceral horror of the Alien trilogy and the relentless brutality of Koushun Takami's Battle Royale, The Wolves' Time is a raw, unforgiving, and macabre tale of friendship, love and brutal survival.
As the sun sets and darkness creeps in, the once familiar surroundings of their hometown become a battleground. The friends' summer plans of LAN parties, mopeds and youthful rebellion are shattered by an unknown enemy that descends upon them with merciless ferocity. Forced to confront their deepest fears and darkest nightmares, they must band together to survive a foe unlike anything anyone has ever seen.
With every page turn, the tension mounts and the body count rises. This is a story of friendship tested by fire, of loyalty pushed to its limits and of courage forged in the crucible of terror. The Wolves' Time is not for the faint-hearted. It is a chilling journey into the unknown, where the lines between reality and nightmare blur, and the only certainty is that no one is safe.
Prepare yourself for a tale that is as haunting as it is relentless and as beautiful as it is brutal. Get your copy today and see if you can survive the nightmare!

In The Wolf's Time, we follow a group of friends in the quiet Swedish town of Skutskär as their idyllic summer quickly spirals into a terrifying battle for survival against an unknown enemy. This gripping tale seamlessly blends themes of friendship, love, and raw horror, reminiscent of classics like Stranger Things and Battle Royale. I thoroughly enjoyed how the tension built with each page, making it impossible to put down. The vivid descriptions and emotional depth really drew me in, creating a haunting atmosphere that lingered long after I finished reading.
