I literally could not stop reading this book. It is a quick read because it is written in a form like poetry, but you forget that almost immediately. It's premise - that there are people in our society who can transform themselves into wolves and survive by fighting packs of rival wolves - is probably not terribly unusual in literature (I wouldn't know), but the psychological relationships between and within the humans makes this a fascinatingly deep work with a gratifying ending. I intend to read it again to better understand the web of relationships amongst the characters.
