(112 reviews)
As Buck, a mixed breed dog, is taken away from his home, instead of facing a feast for breakfast and the comforts of home, he faces the hardships of being a sled dog. Soon he lands in the wrong hands, being forced to keep going when it is too rough for him and the other dogs in his pack. He also fights the urges to run free with his ancestors, the wolves who live around where he is pulling the sled.

Awesome book
Great plot. Always kept moving, and kept me excited the entire time. I absolutely loved buck and his personality. His transformation from house dog to mad-lad was inspiring.

The author seems to know an awful lot about dog fights, assuming this was not plagiarized.

This ended up being much better than I thought it would be based on the first page. It's not a perfect book, being a bit choppy in places, but it is engaging and visceral. I'm not big on dog stories, but I found myself identifying with Buck in many ways both endearing and disturbing. Overall, a nice little (short!) book.
