Known as the Barbarian, Magnar MacAlpin is a fierce ruler for those under his command. As leader of the Wolves of Clan Sutherland, his loyalty and obedience lies with Scotland. However, the king's last demand is not something Magnar will tolerate.

After Elspeth Gunn's brother the Chieftain of Castle Steinn is murdered, she flees with her nephew, and finds safety amongst a band of men who are rumored to be part wolf. When the king forces her to wed a heathen Northman, she fears losing her heart and soul not only to the man, but the beast as well. In order to restore peace to a shattered clan, Magnar and Elspeth travel a treacherous path that challenges their beliefs.

When evil seeks to destroy ancient traditions, will Magnar be compelled to restrain his wolf or allow him free to protect those he loves?

Escape into the Viking world of the Wolves of Clan Sutherland!

Review

"The minute I received this book to review I put everything else aside and readied myself for an exciting historical romantic adventure just like all the previous by Ms. Morgan I have read. I sat glued from page one till the end enjoying every minute of Magnar and Elspeth's story." Reviewed by Linda Tonis, Paranormal Romance Guild
"I applaud Mary Morgan for adding her own spin to Norse mythology. Her intricate historical details make this a must-read. I can't wait for book two. Highly recommend!" N.N. Light Book Heaven
"If readers have not yet read a book by Mary Morgan, jumping in with "Magnar" is like plunging into a raging river of pure writing force." InD'tale Magazine, November 2020 Issue, 5 stars and Crowned Heart Review

From the Author

As a man, Magnar MacAlpin was not prone to patience. As a wolf, he was far worse in his demands to see this story written. On my trip three years ago to the Orkney Islands, I discovered a vast landscape steeped in ancient legends, ruins, standing stones, and my fictional world of the Wolves of Clan Sutherland. They emerged quietly before I took my journey across the northern seas and entered with force once I arrived in Kirkwall. Here is a rough draft of what I wrote in my travel journal after a long day on Orkney. These words resonated inside me and managed to become a central part of my prologue for Magnar... "Though this warrior moves with stealth-like mastery, the veil of darkness cloaks him. The light of the full moon shimmers not from the steel of his weapon, but the silver within his eyes. He walks between the shadows of man and wolf."

What a great start to a new series! Mary Morgan’s unique style – magic, mysticism, and strong, noble characters whose emotions run deep -- lends itself beautifully to the paranormal, shifter romance. That’s to say nothing of the magnificent, Scottish scenery she describes, the sexy, sensitive love scenes, or the wonderful secondary characters who add so much to the story.Her characters are not sweet and simple. They’re complex, tormented individuals who ultimately find solace, love, and life in each other. I adore Magnar and Elspeth. They’re perfect for each other, which seems impossible at first. I spent a good portion of the book holding my breath, wondering how they would get past that which divided them. But the author made it work out beautifully, so sweetly. We can only wish that more such love and acceptance existed in this world.One of my favorite aspects of Mary Morgan’s writing – and there are many as she’s one of my favorite authors – is the way she weaves magic and mysticism into her stories. It’s captivating. Another is the true nobility of her characters. I’m sighing as I type this. It’s impossible not to love the characters or get caught up in the story.Mary Morgan is a master storyteller. Her stories read like legends of old. Don’t miss this romance, first in The Wolves of Clan Sutherland series -- historical, paranormal, spectacular.

5.0 out of 5 stars Man and wolf in one
Reviewed in the United States on January 2, 2024

Magnar is not looking for love. As leader of the wolves of clan Sutherland he seeks only to serve his king. When the king orders him to marry Elspeth in order to better protect her young nephew and next Chieftan. He is totally unprepared for how she touches his mind, his wolf, and his heart. This is a strong woman worthy of this lusty warrior wolf. This is a beautiful tale of magic, the miracle of love, and the protection of her one true God and his many gods and goddesses. I loved it and I'm off to read the next story to be prepared for the release of the third one soon.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Enchanting Read
Reviewed in the United States on October 9, 2020
Verified Purchase
Set in 1206, this book is steeped in history and romance with a touch of shapeshifter and magic. Magnar is the first book of Mary’s new series Wolves of Clan Sutherland. Magnar is their leader. The Clan is tasked with protecting the king and Scotland. Bound in traditions, secrets, and magic Magnar lives for his duties until the king’s orders conflict with everything Magnar believes. Not to mention the woman who can arouse, enrage, and bewilder him all at the same time. Not a easy feat nor one for the faint of heart.
Enter beautiful but determined Elspeth with her nephew. She’ll do anything to protect the boy except… Magnar can enrage, enthrall, and bewitch her. Her feelings for this handsome brooding Scotsman are like nothing she has experienced before.
Mary has once again created fantastic characters and wonderful descriptions that will whisk you into the story where you find yourself rooting for the hero, cursing the villain, and swooning with the heroine. I truly enjoyed this story and highly recommend it.

4.0 out of 5 stars An enjoyable mix of history, magic, and steamy romance
Reviewed in the United States on December 9, 2020
Verified Purchase
There was a lot I liked about this book. I loved the two main characters. I liked that Magnar wasn't perfect and struggled with his baser side, his wolf. I really liked that Elspeth was strong and wasn't a damsel in distress. From the first page, I was drawn into the story by the author's skillful way of capturing the historical setting. I loved the mix of history and magic, though I wouldn't really call this a shifter story. The wolf shifting was part of the tale, but this was more of a story about growing love between two very different people. I did enjoy the interactions between these two character, especially how she challenged him. The passionate love scenes set this romance on fire. Oh my.

What I wanted to see more of was conflict between the two characters. It seemed a little too easy for Elspeth to accept Magnar's heathen beliefs and fall in love with him after their arranged marriage. I guess I just wanted to see her struggle with this a little more. Other than that, this was a near-perfect read. I'd give it a 4.5 if I could. I look forward to more from this author. Highly recommended!

This is the first book that I have read from this author and at first could not get into it and thought that I would not finish it. Then thankfully I decided to continue to read the book and was pleasantly surprised at how much better the plot got the further you went into the storyline. Magnar definitely makes the story interesting and then you throw in a young lad and his aunt and don't forget the information that you have a twin brother that was given away right after birth. This is one that will keep you on the edge under the very end of the book.

**I was given this free ARC book to read and then give my honest review of it afterward by HiddenGems Books but I was enjoying the book so much I just went and purchased it for my permanent Kindle library.**

I thoroughly enjoyed reading Magnar! I am looking forward to this new series by Mary Morgan. Great storyline and characters, Mary is such an amazing story teller that you have no problems envisioning what you are reading.

Magnar is the leader of the Clan Sutherland wolves, they are tasked with protecting King Richard, the lion and Scotland. The Clan is steeped in tradition and magic and Magnar lives for his duties until an order from his King changes his course.
Elspeth doesn't know what to make of the big brooding handsome man, he has the ability to make her firing mad and so insane with feelings she has never had that when she gets the news of a marriage she isn't sure whether to be mad or rejoice.

5.0 out of 5 stars Unique romantic mystical adventurous book
Reviewed in the United States on January 29, 2021

Magnar The Wolves of Clan Sutherland has a very unique plot which captivates you from the first chapter. Heroes that are part man and part wolf. Filled with romance, mystery and twists mixed with some history of 13th Century Scotland. The hero and heroine are both brave, outspoken and deep rooted in their beliefs, although not the same as the story unfolds which makes this all the more compelling to keep reading until the end. I didn’t want to put this book down. Such a fun and different storyline that shows that no matter our differences that love truly does conquer the “beast” in all of us.
