Firstly I’d like to thank Panmacmillan and NetGalley for the eARC 🥰😘

PACKPACKPACK ❤️❤️

This book just cemented that Green Creek is one of my favourite series and I’ve only read 2 of the 4. It’s an incredible read. The heartache and longing in this book is almost too much to bear but that’s something that TJ Klune does so well, we feel Gordo and Marks emotional so acutely. We feel not only theirs but the whole packs feelings as if we’re part of the Green Creek Pack (oh how I wish I was 🥹😭).

Ravensong feels more mature than Wolfsong which I think is mainly to do with Gordo and Marks ages ❤️❤️ And though I haven’t read Heartsong yet I have a feeling I know who it might be about…😏😍

There are so many reasons to love Ravensong - it’s a story about love between a found family, about loss, hurt and healing, finding people again and forgiveness, of wolves, magic and special humans and it’s a story about unconditional romantic love.

Oh and I just have to add that it’s super hot 😏❤️

I can’t express how much I adore this book, this series and TJ Klune. I cried when I read this book and you will too. Gordo and Mark will become part of you 10✨ because I can!!

1) how dare you
2) GORDO AND MARK
3) this was such a wild ride from start to finish and those closing chapters of The Lighthouse, pack pack pack, did me in!! What incredible storytelling.

Let me start by saying that I did like Wolfsong better, and I do see that there isn't that much of a plot to this, but I cannot give it anything less than 5 stars because these characters have my whole heart. I would give any book in this series 5 stars even if there were no stakes at all and they were all just hanging out with literally nothing to do other than be themselves.

The book starts by recounting the events of Wolfsong through Gordo's perspective, especially those 3 years he was away chasing ghosts with Joe, Carter and Kelly and how it was like for them when they got back. I loved the bond Gordo developed with the 3 brothers and how he unknowingly became pack.

Ravensong is obviously centered around Gordo and Mark's relationship and, while I enjoyed that and think Mark is a cinnamon roll with the purest of hearts, I did really like how we also got to see Gordo's relationship with everyone else in the pack and how much he loves and cares about everyone even though he tries to hide it by being an ass most of the time. I especially liked his relationship with Elizabeth, I think she is such a queen and so underrated as a character. Elizabeth is who I aspire to be in life.

And then there's Thomas. Talk about Gordo's relationship with Thomas and I'm already bawling my eyes out.

And then there's Carter. I love Carter to death. I love his relationship with Kelly. I just love his entire personality. I cannot wait to read from both their perspectives.

The only thing that didn't sit right with me in this book was that it seemed like Ox was this all-powerful alpha (which he is and we love him for it) but where was Joe? This whole book it didn't feel like Joe was his own person like the rest of the pack was, he was just there to be Ox's mate and that's it. I understand that, this being from Gordo's pov, it would center more on his relationships with Mark, Elizabeth, Ox and the humans, but Joe could have not showed up at all in this whole book and nothing would've changed.

That being said, I loved this and I was crying half the time because I love these characters so damn much.

I only recently read Wolfsong so I was interested to see what would happen in the second book. If I’m being honest, it just wasn’t for me. I don’t know what it is about these books, but I can’t get into them properly at all. I’m sure there are plenty of fans if this series though, but sadly I’m not one of them.

I really enjoyed this book.
I didn't realise it was a sequel when I started reading it but I will definitely be reading the first book now.

"Revensong" is the sequel to "Wolfpack", the second installment in the Green Creek series. The central character in this installment is Gordo Livingstone, also known as Mark.

T J Klune expertly navigates his complex emotions, exploring his past trauma and present struggles. Gordo's journey from isolation to belonging is deeply emotional, relatable and heartfelt. I found myself rooting for him all along!

Once again, Klune's writing style is captivating, with that unique way of getting the reader hooked from the beginning. Even though the story took darker turns at times, I found Ravensong a very comforting and heartwarming read. Even though I enjoyed it overall, I felt like it was a bit too long at times and unnecessarily dragged some events.

"Ravensong" is a great sequel to "Wolfsong". I loved returning to the world of Green Creek and following the new adventures of the wolf pack. T.J. Klune's masterful storytelling and well-crafted characters continue to shine, making this novel a great escape read for fans of the particular style of cosy fantasy that the author is so great at delivering.

Thanks to Netgalley for the arc in exchange of an honest review.

I never read Wolfsong, though I did read and review In the Lives of Puppets a few months ago, and really enjoyed that, so I decided to give this one a go too. In retrospect, I really should have read Wolfsong first, because Ravensong clearly picks up a lot of threads from the first book. I'd been hoping for a copy with my review copy of Ravensong, but I'll definitely be picking up a copy because I really enjoyed Ravensong a lot!

It's very much a book of two distinct halves. From what I can tell, the first part of the story intertwines through the story of Wolfsong. We see things that happened in the first book through the eyes of different characters, I think. It jumps around in time, as we see Gordo's life in snippets and cut scenes, and there's a long road trip with Gordo and three of the Bennett brothers which really doesn't seem to get anywhere. There's no real sense of destination or achievement while they're on the road, and then when they get back home there's this feeling that everything has kinda happened there while they were away, before the book jumps forward in time. This utterly confused me before I realised just how big the overlap with Wolfsong must be and that the other events of this particular time period happen elsewhere.

So yeah, this first section of the book, and it's a fairly chunky section, is mostly just four people driving around and getting nowhere, mixed in with flashbacks. And yet, somehow, it isn't boring or frustrating. Far from it, in fact. Despite my confusion at certain points, I really loved it. It had this strange and beautiful dreamlike quality, as paragraphs skipped back and forth in time with no real breaks, no indications, no time stamps, we're with Gordo in a roadside motel, and then we're with him as a teenage boy sneaking into a garage for the first time, and then we're with him in pack meetings as a young man, and then we're back in the car. It's trance like and a little unsettling but in the best way, like we're just on multiple journeys with him and time and space aren't restricting us any more. There's extensive use of foreshadowing, as events are depicted a certain amount of time before other, major events, that are skirted around through several sections before we suddenly realise they're unfolding before us. There's a real power to this kind of storytelling, when it is done well, and T J Klune does it very well!

The next part of the book is more traditional storytelling, as we follow a single narrative to its conclusion, but this dreamlike quality seeps through it still, with occasional sequences drawing us back into that unsettling and beautiful state. Gordo's new pack is under threat from several sources, an infection, another pack, hunters and witches. They have to come together to identify the threats and deal with them as the stakes steadily raise and the peril mounts. It's tense and exciting with some incredible dramatic moments. I love Gordo, and his grumpy ass, and his confidence, this human standing up to werewolves knowing, or believing, that he is more than a match for any of them. You really have to hand it to him. (Sorry!)

This is a book with a strong narrative, but it is such a sensual book too! I think it's the wolves, but it really is a treat for all of the senses. There's music threaded throughout it, from the sing-a-longs on the road trip to the way familiar songs can evoke memories of our parents in everyday situations. Colour is used to communicate feelings through the shared threads between the pack, along with thoughts that are expressed as single words packed with meaning. Scent is used to identify people and how we think of them, how we remember them, and there's an extraordinary tactile sense too, the pack constantly using small touches to build familiarity and express love and affection, and I've never seen it expressed so well before. There's also a very explicit sex scene here too! I wasn't quite expecting it, but it was hot as hell!

More than anything though, this is a book with some very strong and difficult emotions. Families and trust are built up and broken, neither are easy. And it is a book about love, about hearts breaking, about abandonment and all of the hurt, anger and resentment left behind and what it can do to us. It's about losing people and finding people, and for all of the bitterness, it's a story about hope. A beautiful, powerful tale.

I loved Ravensong, and highly recommend it. I just wish I'd read Wolfsong first.

Ravensong is a beautiful, moving and heartfelt story than combines drama with a decades long romance. It’s heart wrenching, but uplifting, melancholic but hilarious and it made my heart sing!

TJ Klune is the master at creating realistic, loveable, and beautifully flawed characters that I can’t help but care for. Gordo is a complex character, and I wanted to hug him (although he’d hate that!). Under his gruff, stand offish exterior, he has a heart of gold and he’s fiercely protective of his found family. Gordo’s narration flits back and forth across different timelines, unfolding past events in his tragic upbringing, and providing context to his position and feelings about his role as the pack witch. Mark is continuously present throughout Gordo’s life, and even when absent, he’s constantly on Gordo’s mind. Their relationship is complex, fated and crippled by Gordo’s distrust and feelings of abandonment but as Gordo finds his way back to the pack emotionally, he opens his mind to Mark’s story and his heart to forgiveness and love. I breathed a huge sigh of relief because Gordo deserves all the love in the world.

No one does the found family trope quite like TJ and the bond between the Green Creek pack is heartwarming and tangible. The pack have faced great heartbreak, yet so much love and joy shines through their pack bond.

Humour is peppered through the novel to shine light on the darker elements of the storyline and I loved the banter between Tanner, Chris and Rico, which was often at Gordo’s expense. They had me in stitches with their ridiculous antics.

The plot of Ravensong is a continuation of the events from Wolfsong but with even more drama and excitement. At times I couldn’t work out how it could wrap up with any kind of happiness for the pack, but TJ executes it beautiful and does Gordo proud.

We get to know the other pack members more in Ravensong and it was great to catch up with a loved up Ox and Joe and see how Ox’s confidence had grown.

Ravensong is a beautifully crafted and heartwarming read about acceptance, found family, love and forgiveness. I can’t wait to see what’s next in store for the Green Creek pack.

I loved returning to Green Creek and delving further into the story of the pack. I loved Gordon in Wolfong so thoroughly enjoyed an instalment from his POV. This is a beautiful story full of love and loyalty and a little bit of danger which I thoroughly enjoyed. The only thing that pulled the rating down from 5 stars for me was that there were points where the plot dragged a bit and it felt slightly repetitive, but all in all still a fantastic book

The story had a similarity to book one, but it made Gordo and Ox connect more. It's heartwarming, full of love and friendship, on the contrary, there are brutal action scenes and heartbreak.
Discovering the history between Bennet pack and Gordo was utterly enjoyable and the romance was heartbreaking, but so beautiful.

T.J. Klune is a great storyteller. The plot is brilliant and his characters are superb, so humorous and likeable. This book is over 500 pages long, but I read it in one sitting. I couldn't put this down.

I'm not a fan of the change if main characters in a series, but I can't wait to read the sequels!

I loved Wolfsong last year, have the hardback, and have loved seeing friends read it too. If you didn't know it, you also need gay werewolves in your life!

Ravensong is the second in the series (there are four in total) and though they were published a while ago, they are getting a revamp and coming back (a bit too slowly for my liking!). This time we're back in Green Creek at the time where Gordo is away with Joe and some of the pack to hunt down Richard Collins but we also go back to when Gordo was young, when he first discovered Mark should be his mate and we find out what his father Robert Livingstone did.

It carries on the story when a mysterious infection is apparently causing wolves to turn omega: a wolf that can turn feral, a wolf with an alpha or a pack to call home. Can the wolves of Green Creek and their witch Gordo stop that from happening to their own?

I love this series and I've spent quite a while wondering why?! I like a fantasy novel but they have to be done a certain way and I've discovered the hard way that romantasy is not my cup of tea despite being popular. But then there's romance here, and in many ways it's a bare romance, all laid out with smells and everything. Maybe it's because it's not the main event but just thrown in and because we care so much about the pack we love the romance too?

There is action here, there is found family, which Klune excels in, and though I love Ox and his pov in Wolfsong, I also grew to love flawed Gordo in Ravensong and learning what makes him the curmudgeon we've all grown to love and accept. These are chunky books but in many ways it reminds me of Backman's Beartown trilogy. We love these wolves, witches, normal folk, all part of the pack and we want to know what will happen to them. That's what I think is so appealing: getting to know a bunch of funny, quirky characters; loving them and becoming so invested, and I can't wait to read more ❤️🐺

Love, ALL the love for this return to Green Creek! Today is my tour stop day for Ravensong by TJ Klune which is out now in this stunning cover 😍

Ravensong takes us back into the pack and unravels those dynamics following the end of Wolfsong. There's a little bit of crossover while we explore Gordo and his past and relationship bonds to the Bennetts and Green Creek which fills in some gaps quite nicely.

I LOVED Team Human, especially Rico who made me laugh a lot and I'm so glad we saw more of Ox. Ravensong is absolutely packed (heh) full of emotion and some drama. I was on board with every page and am incredibly sad to move on, but also excited? Hmm and nervous

I actually didn't realise this was a sequel when I started reading it. Only when I went into good reads I noticed. This makes perfect sense now. Although as always with tj klune I enjoyed the book I wish I had read the first one first. I have seen other people say this about goodreads it does not tell you this before hand. Maybe a good feature to add if a book is part of a series.

I adore everything TJ Klune writes so it will be no surprise I couldn't wait to start reading this .. however I found it a bit less enjoyable than reading Wolfsong .. perhaps I wasn't in the right headspace, I might actually circle back and read it again at a later date! The writing is full of love and emotion as you would expect but at times I found it a bit rambling and confusing but I loved that it is from the perspective of Gordo who I felt we needed more of in the first book!

🐺🐺🐺 Ravensong 🐺🐺🐺

(Ad - pr product) blog tour

Gordo Livingstone never forgot the lessons carved into his skin. Hardened by the betrayal of a pack who left him behind, he sought solace in the garage in his tiny mountain town, vowing never again to involve himself in the affairs of wolves.
It should have been enough…
And it was, until the wolves came back, and with them, Mark Bennett. In the end, they faced the beast together as a pack . . . and won.
Now, a year later, Gordo has found himself once again the witch of the Bennett pack. Green Creek has settled after the death of Richard Collins, and Gordo constantly struggles to ignore Mark and the song that howls between them.
But time is running out. Something is coming. And this time, it’s crawling from within.

Some bonds, no matter how strong, were made to be broken.

I read Wolfsong last year as part of the blog tour and fell in love with Green Creek and its quirky inhabitants, so when I was offered the chance to read the sequel Ravensong I jumped at the chance!
Although a sequel, the story starts before and during the events of Wolfsong, this time we join the viewpoint and thoughts of Gordo, the witch for the Bennett pack (packpackpack) going back to when he was a boy, having his painful magical tattoos and falling in love with a wolf.
We also follow his side of the story, when he and the Bennett boys went on the hunt for the murderous wolf, Richard Collins, who came and devastated their family.
We then have a whole new threat to read about, a villainous werewolf hunter, determined to snuff them all out, the high Alpha who wants control and a dangerous infection that threatens the wolves.
I don’t want to include any spoilers as yet again, you need to go headfirst into the book and join in the ups and downs of the rollercoaster of action and emotions.
TJ Klune knows how to write all the emotions, all the tension and all the action. I’m always on the edge of my seat reading these and despite being nearly 600 pages, I still fly through the stories, you do not want to put this book down!
You feel every heartbreak, the awkwardness and all the love that TJ cleverly and masterfully spills from the pages. Such talent!
Beautifully written, never cringey and I for one can’t wait for book 3!!

Ravensong is available now

Thank you so much to Black Crow Pr, and Netgalley 🐺

What can I say? TJ Klune has done it again. I loved Gordo from Wolfsong so was happy to see that this story centres around him. If you r read Klune’s books before you know what to expect so there’s no point in me saying anything that hasn’t already been said. I will say however, I LOVED IT!
He managed to write so much heart and soul into his characters that you can’t help but love them and feel for them. I will be sad once this series is over.

This one didn't sing to me, as Wolfsong did. It was good but had too much of anger/angst and too less happiness and laughter to compensate.

If you haven't yet read the Green Creek series, I highly recommend it. The books pack a powerful emotional punch, but they're one of my absolute comfort reads.

Ravensong is the second book in this series, and this time we mainly follow Gordo Livingstone's POV as he and Mark Bennett work through their past heartbreak and trauma and get a second chance at love.

Events follow on not too long after the end of Wolfsong, with some overlap at the start and in flashbacks throughout the book. This time, a new threat finds its way to Green Creek, which not only endangers the Bennett pack, but could threaten the future of all wolves.

Gordo finds himself getting pulled back into his role of witch to the Bennett pack. I loved Gordo in Wolfsong, so getting his POV in this book was great. He's grumpy and abrasive, hates talking about emotions and would rather sling threats than admit he cares. In the words of Mark: "You could have become the villain, Gordo. And it would have been within your right. Instead you just chose to be an asshole."

Rather than risking any spoilers, here are a few of my favourite things:
- packpackpack and loyalty
- team Human - I loved them ganging up on Gordo, and Rico in particular was hilarious
- Elizabeth Bennett fiercely defending her children
- mystical moon magic mates
- older main characters (late thirties / early forties)
- Gordo's tattoos
- as always with TJ Klune's books, found family

Blue and green and ravens and roses and grass and earth and wolves and pack

Oh my word, Gordo and Mark and Ox and Joe and packpackpack. There are secrets, lies, feral omegas, magic, deceit, tattoos, friends, enemies, betrayal, heartbreak and song. In the first few chapters, I worried this was going to be a repeat of Ox and Joe, but just with the wolf being older than the human. It didn't take long for me to realise that I was both right but also very wrong. It was a repeat of Wolfsong in that it totally overwhelmed me with emotions, but the plot and characters were so very different.


I loved getting to know Tanner, Chris and Rico as young boys, and then watching them grow into amazing men. I adored seeing the intimate, brotherly bond between Carter and Kelly. I swooned at the love between Gordo and Mark, railed at the unfairness of life, and growled with frustration when neither seemed able/willing to bridge the chasm that had grown between them. There were some very funny moments to balance the angst and turmoil, a generous sprinkling of hope, dark humour, and love to balance the pain and hurt.


I didn't want to put the book down, the story, the characters, and the feelings were intense, amazing and utterly spellbinding. The journey this book took me on is one I won't readily forget, the writing and world-building are executed to a high standard, the plot is captivating and moves at a good pace. The twists took me by surprise, with the benefit of hindsight I could see clearly how the author wove and layered the plot, building towards a resolution whilst subtly dropping clues along the way. I am totally committed to this series and cannot wait to read the next book.

Oh wow! What an emotional rollercoaster!

I loved Gordo in Wolfsong, he's brash, grumpy and not up for any tom foolery!

This book was filled with dark humour, drama, action and made me have a lump in my throat in a few places!

Also I loved:
~ The flashbacks
~ Gordos heartache after heartache
~ Found family
~ Bambi - she's my new favourite person
~ Mark - my heart!
~ Ox - I still love him
~ The wooden raven
~ The moment when Gordo realises it's time
~ The singing of the wolves
~ The hate/love romance

'But the funny thing about hate is the razor-thin line that separates it from something else entirely.'

And lastly, the timber wolf and that ending, can't wait to see what happens next! Oh and pack, pack, pack!
