      "A daring novel that achieves the most difficult of challenges: to alter slightly the world for the reader." The Observer"Smith reaches a crucial point: there is a bit of wolf in each of us." Time Out"I'm the wolf, the reaper of life: the predator. I attack with my eyes open and see death bright and fierce jump on the look of my prey. I'm the wolf, the shadow that brings the light of death, a life that gives freedom fearful and wrestlers in droves and ending the suffering of the weak. I have been with many to hear their last breaths, to hold them, to bring them down, to rip them as they moan and fight for the life which they had discarded and forgotten to live, to warm and reawaken them finally within the fire of its end."

    • The Lectures on Faith were created for the School of the Prophets in Kirtland, Ohio, in 1834 and were included in the Doctrine and Covenants from 1835 to 1921. The 1835 preface states that the volume outlines the core beliefs of the Latter Day Saints. The first part consists of lectures delivered to a theological class, focusing on the doctrine of salvation. The second part includes principles for church regulation drawn from revelations since its inception. This preface was signed by the First Presidency, including Joseph Smith, Jr. The lectures were initially titled "Theology Lecture First On the Doctrine of the Church of the Latter Day Saints," later renamed "Lectures on Faith" in the 1876 edition by Elder Orson Pratt. Although not accepted as revelation and removed from the Doctrine and Covenants in 1921, the lectures offer valuable doctrinal insights for those seeking to deepen their faith. Joseph Fielding Smith emphasized their importance for the rising generation, while Elder Bruce R. McConkie noted their exceptional lessons on the Godhead, faith, and sacrifice. The lectures follow a catechism format with numbered verses, questions, and answers, encouraging memorization of key principles.
