Publisher's Notes
First Line: "The wolves of the Avalik River ran in and out among the musk oxen. Their ruffs rippled like banners. Ice crystals danced up from their feet."
Industry Reviews "...as exciting and riveting as the two previous books in this series....It is evident that George has written from experience and extensive research....She has captured the essence of nature in the purest sense and provided the reader a glimpse of the awesomeness of the instincts wolves posses, which makes their continued existence possible." Five Owls - Brenda Dixey
"Jean Craighead George has spent decades observing and recording the life styles of the wild and wolfish, and her love for the subject matter is clearly evident in the smooth assuredness of her narrative." New York Times Book Review - J. D. Biersdorfer (11/16/1997)
"George invests all her characters with expressive language, customary patterns of behavior, distinct personalities, and rich emotional lives." Karlin
