But many nights we stayed awake, clubs in our hands, as the wolves prowled around the outside of the house-waiting.

Whatever it was didn't move, didn't make a sound, and Mr. Dunworthy had been right: pretending to be unconscious was no way to come into a century where wolves still prowled the forests.

Huge grey wolves prowled the mountains, but these kept clear of the-man as he made his slow, steady progress.

Outside it the giant wolf like creature prowled, seeking some way to enter.

He brooded on it in the darkness while the wolves prowled about his new encampment and filled the nights with their howling.

If this went on, the wolves would be moving down from the hills and prowling hungrily among the haunts of men.

Even now the wolf might be prowling near, just beyond the circle of firelight, watching the sheep, and watching the tender girl.

Around the house prowled strangely docile lions and wolves, the drugged victims of her magic; they were not dangerous, and fawned on all newcomers.

Peasants sometimes went afoot after deer, or set snares for birds and rabbits-yet seldom, for wolves prowled these reaches and, it was whispered, beings more uncanny than that.

Paranor stood as it had three hundred years before, lifting out of the dark forest where wolves prowled and moms the size of lance-points bristled protectively.
