The Gilded Wolves
What is the narrator point of view in the novel, The Gilded Wolves?
.
.
The novel is told in the third person limited point of view following four of the main characters. The first one is Séverin, the leader of the group who has the most effect on the story. Almost all of his sections start with an introduction of one of his foster fathers to establish the theme of the Seven Deadly Sins. Second is Laila, where the reader learns about her birth as a Forged human and her fear of death if she does not find the book that helped make her. Third is Enrique, a bisexual, half-Filipino, half-Spanish genius with a love of history and mythology. Last is Zofia, a math genius who does not understand social queues or simple conversations. There is a single chapter told in Hypnos’ point of view at the very end of the novel to establish the main conflict in the next novel. All of the narrators, with the exception of Hypnos, have an almost equal amount of chapters. They are used strategically to ensure that the reader understands how each character influences the outcome of their heists. Furthermore, these chapters establish each character’s unique personality, their ambitions, and their fears. No character feels less important than the others, and the author gives the reader plenty of time to care for all of them.
