Soul Eater by Michelle Paver

4.0

Another excellent entry in this series that "combines Stone Age anthropology with supernatural mythology"--Torak and his friend Renn set off to the frozen North to rescue his "packmate" (best friend who's not a human) Wolf. There's always lots of outdoor survival scenes and tense action in these books, plus animal behavior--the way Torak and Wolf "talk" in wolfspeak is really neat. The magical elements are also fascinating, as Torak once again must "spirit walk" in the body of a bird and even a polar bear in order to complete his quest. I especially love hearing Sir Ian McKellan narrate these on audiobook; mmmmmm!
