Book Review of The Tenderness of Wolves

The Tenderness of Wolves
MaGee avatar reviewed on + 43 more book reviews


This is a beautifully written book with a tight plot, well defined characters and two interconnected mysteries solved. It is set in Northern Canada during the winter with the heyday of the Hudson Bay Company as a backdrop.

Day to day life is hard, the wilderness is dangerous, the relationship between the Indians, the Hudson Bay people and the locals is tenuous at best, but they must rely on one another. The descriptions of the life and times are very authentic.

Highly recommended.
