The Unclaimed Wolf: A Young Adult Romantasy Adventure (The Shendri Series Book 3) Kindle Edition

by E.P. Stavs (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.8 out of 5 stars 34 ratings
“I will not abandon them to their fate. Bade needs to be stopped, and I'm the one who needs to do it.”

Sir Edmund Brandt has always considered himself to be a natural charmer. So, when Queen Josselyn ships him off to Northern Myr in hopes of recruiting the wolf Shendri, he assumes locating her will be the hardest part. Little does he know this wolf has teeth.

Maya, a.k.a. “Shifter”, is second-in-command of the Dirt Mercs, a position she takes quite seriously. The Mercs are her family, and she's determined to use her gifts to protect them. When an arrogant Eldorian Knight arrives at the Haven and starts nosing around, she's having none of it. No one messes with her family and gets away with it. Edmund isn't the only one looking to claim the wolf, however, and a dark shadow lies on the other side of the river, where Bade and his newfound dragon Shendri linger, waiting for Maya to join their fold. And Bade isn't one to take rejection lightly.

Desperate times force unlikely bonds as the need for vengeance sends Maya and Edmund into dangerous territory in this exciting third installment of E.P. Stavs's The Shendri Series.

"I don't know how it's possible, but the Shendri become more magical with each installment. Maya is feisty and powerful and exactly the kick-ass woman I want my daughter to look up to. Her powers and the revelation of her backstory develop beautifully into the most gripping story of the series." ~ Amazon Reviewer

    5.0 out of 5 stars Another page-turner in the Shendri series.
    Reviewed in the United States on April 21, 2025

    The Unclaimed Wolf is a fantastic entry in the Shendri series. The story deepens as the Dirt Mercs and Mihalans are introduced. The threat of bad guy Bade looms closer, and by the end we get intriguing glimpses into his character and motivations.

    Hardened mercenary Maya has a certain level of maturity and world-worn experience, which is a refreshing change of pace from the previous two Shendri (as great as they are in their own stories).

    The relationship between Maya (the wolf Shendri) and Fia (the dragon Shendri)—sisters at heart but torn by conflicting loyalties—is heartbreaking and well-told.

    I loved seeing Edmund get to step into the spotlight here, after his somewhat secondary status in the first book. He matures in wonderful ways in this third book. It's easy to forget the enemy-to-lovers trope that informs his role, because his relationship with Maya happens in a believable and organic way, blending seamlessly into the increasingly urgent and deepening plotlines of the series.

    The end of this third book is spot-on, with tantalizing clues toward revelations to come. It's a bit of a cliffhanger, too, as we don't know the fate of several characters, including one very important one! All the more reason to pick up the fourth and final book, which I'm looking forward to.

    The Unclaimed Wolf introduces the third heroine in the Shendri series. Maya is a strong, passionate, warrior trained in combat. She is extremely loyal to her people and family, and is a compelling addition to this wonderful fantasy series!

    It also reintroduces Sir Edmund, a heroic knight who falls quickly for Maya’s fearless nature. A kind-hearted, loyal man, sparks quickly fly between the pair, leading to a sweet-hearted romance as Edmund and Maya overcome their differences and find their way into each others’ hearts.

    I also greatly enjoyed meeting new characters Berg and Cashel. Their humor and good nature made them instant favourites!

    I enjoyed this adventure and look forward to reading more stories in this amazing fantasy world!

    The Shendri series continues to captivate me with The Unclaimed Wolf!

    Stavs once again had me hooked from page one. Her writing is always superb and immediately hooks me into the story without any slow points or stagnation in the plot.

    I thought Maya was a wonderful addition to the Shendri Warriors. I loved her unique heritage and powers (sorry can’t say anymore because SPOILERS!) and her found family of the Dirt Mercs was so special and loving.

    And I was so excited to see Edmund as one of the main characters in this book. I loved him in The Marked Princess so seeing him finally find love was so satisfying!

    I could ramble on about how much I loved this book for ages but I’m scared I’ll end up spoiling something if I keep going so I’ll end with this - this series is incredible and I HIGHLY recommend it to any fans of YA fantasy! I can’t wait to read the final installment!

    Reviewed in the United States on March 28, 2021
    This was another great entry into The Shendri Series, especially with the Shendri Warrior being a kick-ass, take-no-nonsense, female lead character. Getting more worldbuilding in this third installment was a welcome change--I have more of a grasp on this fantasy world.
    I'm looking forward to how the series wraps up in The Moonlit Warrior, coming in the fall!

    *Closes book with contented sigh*

    What can I say? I really love the Shendri series. The writing flows quickly and effortlessly, and banter and the romance just keeps me coming back for more. I've loved getting to know every Shendri warrior, and I especially loved this enemies-to-lovers of Edmund and Maya. I really loved the world-building in this book too, and really getting to dive into the magic and mysteries of this world. Extra points for the fun side characters Cashel and Berg - I could totally listen to them back and forth for a whole 'nother book - and also for the enticing bread crumbs leading us into book four. **grabby hands**

    Honestly, the only thing I'm really sad about is that the fourth one will be the last one. Cuz I'm not ready for it to end yet!!

    Book three of the Shendri series may be my favorite so far. The Unclaimed Wolf by E.P. Stavs introduces the fiercest of the Shendri, Maya. I loved her independence, her sensibility, and no-nonsense attitude. How interesting to receive such a different viewpoint of this world.

    The world-building in this novel was really amazing! I feel like a whole new level was unlocked, exposing multiple layers to the Shendri world. I enjoyed being there. Without giving away too many details, I will say I found the world-building to be immersive, visual, and such beautiful, captivating work.

    Also, I love a good ending and I appreciate how difficult that can be to do. This story-ending did not disappoint. The Unclaimed Wolf is the third book I’ve read by Stavs, and I believe she has an exceptional talent for ending stories. This one resolved in a way that was most satisfying while piquing my curiosity for the last book, The Moonlit Warrior.
