Emerging Legacy - The Outlands, #2

The slavers who capture Kelyn's youthful hunting pack also threaten her village--which depends on the meat and trade pelts the pack brings in from the harsh land of Ketura. But except for Kelyn, the pack is drugged.and Kelyn's nickname is Kelyn the Clumsy... A Wolverine's Daughter short story in the Outlands world.---------------About Wolverine's Daughter:"When a sword and sorcery book begins with humor, it's fairly well guaranteed to be an excellent read....
This book whips along with impressive fight choreography, excellent background descriptions, and fascinating plotlines."--Kliatt"With this new book, Doranna Durgin ventures into classic sword & sorcery -- and turns the subgenre upside down.... And I like Kelyn, who could kick Red Sonya's steel bikini-clad butt from introduction to epilogue. Fantasy fans in general will love this book, but it has extra appeal for feminists and for warriors of the female persuasion."--Hypatia's Hoard"Furious action, clever rescues and a touch of romance make this a wonderful read."Hannah Steenbock, author of Dorelle's Journey"Kelyn is clumsy.
Incredibly clumsy. Except when she's not - and when she's not, she's an incredible fighter. And she doesn't know the "why" of either state of being. Maybe she's cursed. Maybe it's the famous warrior father she never met, known only as The Wolverine. What's a girl to do? Go find out, of course."Kelyn's journey - quest, really - to find the man who sired her, and the adventures she has along the way is a great, fast, read (fast, because you won't be able to put it down).
Durgin has a gift for creating richly layered characters who you can't help but love and root for, as they go over, under or through the many obstacles and trials the author throws their way. Lots of action, great characters, and prose that sparkles with wit and humor."--Reader Karen JG
