Wolf Moon

With an introduction by Benjamin Myers 
 
Julio Llamazares’ gripping account of fugitive soldiers in the aftermath of the Spanish Civil War is set amidst the wild Cantabrian Mountains. As winter approaches, four fugitives lie low.  It’s 1937, and Franco’s triumphant Guardia Civil hunt the few remaining Republican fighters hiding out in this unforgiving landscape. If they are going to stay ahead and stay alive, these rebels must resist the call of home. Huddling around campfires, they nurse wounds and snatch uneasy sleep. Peering over mountain crests, they scan the valley for threats. This powerful short novel of the long war of resistance against Spain’s dictatorship is peppered with action and brimming with tension. Wolf Moon is a testament to enduring loyalty: to a cause, to justice, and to brothers-in-arms. It is also a poignant homage to the families and sympathisers whose fate is to wait and wonder.
