The Silver Wolf by J.C. Harvey (Atlantic Books)

The Silver Wolf is the first book of a trilogy and takes place during the course of the Thirty Years' War that ravaged Europe and basically caused a 50% decline in population in some parts of Germany. 

Anyone who enjoys sagas and historical fiction should read the book. We follow Jack's life and growth as he seeks vengeance while remaining a good and honorable man.

The book is packed with vivid characters, military tactics, conflicts, adventures, stories, and history.

It's rich, atmospheric, and beautifully written.

I am looking forward to the next one.
